Biogenic Emissions & The Land Sector and Removals Guidance

Join us for an engaging afternoon with IDA Miljø LCA, where we dive into:

• The GHG Protocol’s land sector and removals guidance
• How biogenic emissions and carbon storage are handled in practice
• What this means for your models, data, and decision-making
