To do this, it applies standard emission factors, such as those of ADEME or the GHG protocol. The best free tools offer an estimate of emissions based on <a href=\"https:\/\/d-carbonize.eu\/nl\/blog\/carbon-accounting-scope-1-voorbeelden\/\">scopes 1<\/a> (direct emissions), <a href=\"https:\/\/d-carbonize.eu\/nl\/blog\/carbon-accounting-scope-2-examples\/\">scope 2<\/a> (purchased energy), and sometimes <a href=\"https:\/\/d-carbonize.eu\/nl\/blog\/carbon-accounting-scope-3-emissions-examples\/\">scope 3<\/a> (indirect emissions from the value chain).<\/p><p>A good carbon footprint software should therefore offer a transparent calculation, with a breakdown by sector (mobility, energy, digital, etc.). This measurement of greenhouse gas emissions forms the basis of an initial environmental assessment and allows for visualization of the main emitting sectors.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fa3911e elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"fa3911e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Actionable results\n<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1928345 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"1928345\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The results should be easy to read and interpret, even without carbon accounting expertise. Effective carbon assessment software presents overall emissions in the form of graphs, pie charts, or summary tables. It often provides a summary of total emissions by scope or activity.<\/p><p>Furthermore, some tools allow results to be exported to PDF or excel, making them easy to share or integrate into an internal report.

Recommendations can take the form of personalized advice based on the highest-emitting areas: reducing car travel, switching to renewable energy, rethinking purchasing, etc.<\/p><p>Some free carbon assessment software prioritizes these levers according to their potential impact. Others go further by offering reduction simulations to visualize the effect of a given action. These suggestions, even generic ones, allow users and organizations to take concrete action to reduce their environmental impact.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-80d14b9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"80d14b9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Ability to track over time\n<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-80f0b4d elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"80f0b4d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Being able to track the evolution of one&#8217;s carbon footprint is an important advantage when choosing carbon assessment software.
