Practical Guide on Carbon Audit and Management

Climate change posed an unprecedented global challenge for everyone. Hong Kong is committed to contributing to the solution by taking community-wide actions to reduce greenhouse gases (GHG) emissions.

Carbon audit is an effective process to understand and measure our carbon footprint and a first step to identify appropriate carbon reduction measures.

To facilitate public and private sectors to kick start their carbon management, EPD has compiled a set of nine sector-specific carbon management guidebooks for offices, schools, sports centres, swimming pools, public markets, healthcare facilities, fire stations, postal facilities and community halls respectively to serve as step-by-step reference to build up the capability of carbon auditing, and promote carbon management best practices.

These guidebooks introduce the know-how of carbon audit and set out the major steps of conducting a basic carbon audit. A wide range of measures are also illustrated to facilitate public and private sectors to reduce carbon emissions.
