Carbon Accounting is the systematic measurement, quantification, and reporting of an organization's greenhouse-gas emissions, typically organized into Scopes 1, 2, and 3 under the GHG Protocol. For data centers it underpins sustainability disclosures, net-zero targets, and regulatory reporting, converting energy, fuel, refrigerant, and supply-chain activity into tonnes of CO2-equivalent.
