Why carbon accounting is becoming a C-Suite priority

Until recently, carbon accounting belonged firmly within the remit of sustainability teams, focused primarily on annual reports and compliance. Today, carbon data is emerging as a core business asset. Companies that treat emissions transparency as a tick-box exercise risk being left behind, while those that approach it strategically are unlocking operational efficiencies, investor confidence, and market leadership. Put simply, carbon accounting is no longer just a reporting requirement—it's now a C-suite responsibility.
