Resumen
The objective of this report is to calculate the carbon footprint of the National Environmental Licensing Authority (ANLA), complying with the commitments acquired by Colombia under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (Barrera, Gomez, & Suarez). For this, the Green House Gas Protocol (Greenhouse Gas Protocol, 2021) will be used as the main reference, which establishes a methodological line for the development of the project based on the creation of mitigation strategies and reduction of GHG emissions (Greenhouse gases).
The calculation of the carbon footprint for ANLA will be defined by the emission-generating activities of the entity, including a bottom-up analysis that allows identifying the carbon footprint at a global and local level according to the internal infrastructure of the same. For the carbon footprint quantification process, information will be provided by the entity from 2017 onwards; implementing a multi-year analysis that allows evidence of the variability of emissions according to the social and economic aspects that have affected the entity over time.
The calculation of the carbon footprint will be divided by the scope of the activities of the entity, identifying the sources of emission intrinsic to the operational processes of the company. Basing the creation of programs to reduce and mitigate the emissions generated, with a focus on the need to reduce emissions for each activity.
The project seeks to position ANLA as a pioneer Colombian entity in the Global Reporting Initiative, which sets the guidelines for the preparation of sustainability reports for those companies that wish to evaluate their environmental and social performance
