Measuring your emissions is critical for knowing how much you need to do to reduce those emissions.
…but it’s only critical when you need to know.
If you’re obligated to report on your emissions like the big wigs are, then you need to measure.
If you require before-and-after emissions numbers for a particular reason—say a grant or other funding application requires it—then you need to measure.
Otherwise, it’s not something that ought to delay your climate action.
If you’re using fossil fuel power and you switch to renewables, you don’t create those emissions anymore. No sweat – nothing to measure.
Get hung up on doing the stuff that creates positive impact, not on measuring numbers 👍🌏
