Such changes are likely to have direct and indirect impact upon the way organizations conduct business.  It is therefore important that organizations understand the financial\, operational\, and political implications of potential regulations for reporting GHG emissions and setting reduction goals.  With this understanding\, organizations will be able to develop a response to new regulations  while minimizing overall costs and maximizing opportunities.  This presentation will provide an overview of current GHG reporting programs and inventory tools along with the key considerations to make when managing GHG data.\n \nSpeaker Information:\n Ms. Travis is an environmental engineer with experience in air quality and greenhouse gas inventories\, modeling\, reporting\, policy and strategy.
