Emissions boundary: Definition
To provide accurate GHG emissions reports, an organisation must initially delineate its emissions boundary. This boundary pertains to the structure of the organisation and the areas of its operations it directly manages. It transparently defines the demarcation between activities under the organisation’s control and those beyond its purview.
