PALM BEACH, Fla., April 27, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Sustainability is a major buzzword in the business world. It’s about the short-term and long-term health of the environment, communities, and companies. The total amount of greenhouse gases created to directly or indirectly support certain activities, which may be human or machine oriented, is referred to as the carbon footprint. This is commonly stated in carbon dioxide equivalent tons. The products and services that help manage carbon footprint make up the carbon footprint management market. The global footprint management market has grown significantly during the last few years. The market’s expansion has been led by growing concerns about climate change, global warming, and the need for an international accord on carbon emissions. Managing carbon footprint helps save money on operational expenditures. A firm will lose money if every aspect of it is not optimized. Many ecologically friendly strategies, such as converting to a paperless workplace or lowering energy use, can serve as cost-cutting measures by reducing waste. Such factors are driving the carbon footprint management market as businesses increasingly turn to lower their carbon footprint. According to a report from Emergen Research projected that the global carbon footprint management market size is expected to reach USD 14.74 Billion in 2028 and register a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period. Active companies in the markets this week include: Scope Carbon Corp. (OTCQB: SCPCF) (CSE: SCPE), Carbon Streaming Corporation (OTCQB: OFSTF) (NEO: NETZ), NRG Energy, Inc. (NYSE: NRG), Brookfield Renewable (NYSE: BEP) (TSX: BEP), Devon Energy Corp. (NYSE: DVN).
The Emergen Research report said: “Steady market revenue growth can be attributed to rising concerns regarding global climate change and weather anomalies, global warming, and rising initiatives to address increasing carbon emissions by governments of various countries. Rising awareness among organizations and focus on lowering carbon emissions by calculating carbon footprint is another factor driving market growth. Stringent government regulations regarding carbon emissions is also a major factor driving revenue growth of market. An increasing number of organizations are deploying carbon footprint management software to adhere to such regulations. Increasing climate legislation will also fuel the carbon footprint management market. With 1,810 climate-related laws and regulations in place around the world, compliance is almost certainly required by all. Climate change is becoming a higher concern for many countries, so expect more laws in the future. Among the regional markets, North America accounted for largest revenue share contribution to the global market in (recent years), which is expected to increase substantially during the forecast period. This can be largely attributed to increasing expenditure by governments of countries in the region, rising adoption of carbon footprint management solutions, and stringent regulatory framework.”
