Businesses that are leading the way in fighting the adverse effects of climate change have a few things in common. One fundamental element they have in common is their use of carbon accounting tools to make better decisions concerning their carbon strategy, while steering them away from choices that have a lesser potential impact on achieving their carbon reduction goals.

Corporations are increasingly turning to carbon accounting and internal carbon pricing, with new research from the CDP revealing nearly half the world's largest companies have internal carbon fees.
