List of carbon accounting software
The following is a list of carbon accounting software. A number of programs are used to assist with carbon accounting. One form of Carbon accounting is the accounting process undertaken to measure the amount of carbon dioxide equivalents that will not be released into the atmosphere as a result of flexible mechanisms projects under the Kyoto Protocol. These projects thus include (but are not limited to) renewable energy projects and biomass, forage and tree plantations. A number of programs are created in order to assist with carbon accounting.
