To improve their carbon footprint, companies can reduce their energy consumption, adopt renewable energy sources, and finance offsetting projects (reforestation, co\u2082 capture).

These references allow a specific emission value to be assigned to each identified source, based on its actual impact on the environment. In addition, recognized methodologies should be used, such as ISO 14064 or the carbon footprint standard. These different methods ensure a rigorous and standardized approach to calculations.
