Organizations that produce greenhouse gases (GHGs), recognize that carbon emissions reporting is an increasingly important consideration and of strategic importance in the coming months. As regulation forces these companies to consider their reporting methods, many are turning to clean-tech software to help gather and report the relevant CO2 data built to support the reporting protocols of The California Climate Registry.

Formerly known as the California Climate Action Registry, The Climate Registry is committed to solving the problems of climate change by enhancing reporting requirements and providing educational services to companies wishing to track and report their carbon emissions.
The Climate Registry had only 20 or so members when it was first formed, but has grown to include all the 300 major corporations, municipalities, universities, government agencies and organizations involved in environmental issues. All these entities voluntarily measure, oversee and report their greenhouse gas (GHGs) emissions. Collectively, they are actively working towards a solution to climate change.
The Climate Registry members are actively and voluntarily participating in measures to verify and publicly report their GHG emissions. The state of California offers appropriate consideration to the registry members for their foresight. This will be taken into account when state, federal or global GHG regulations are implemented.
Following a lobby from a group of CEOs, a bill was introduced to the California state legislature and The Climate Registry was formed. Gov. Gray Davis signed a bill into law on October 13, 2001 to form the structure of the registry.
As climate change is, of course, beyond state borders, The Climate Registry may relinquish some or all of its duties to the regulatory authority of either the EPA or other greenhouse gas tracking legislation introduced by congress. Regardless, The Climate Registry has provided ground work and much clarity into the methods and tactics necessary to report carbon emissions.
The stated goal of The Climate Registry is to work to ensure environmental benefits, integrity, and progressive movement in greenhouse gas emissions reductions and to a consistency in CO2 reporting policies. The Climate Registry is an important program under the umbrella of the Climate Action Reserve coming out of California.
It is anticipated that members of The Climate Registry will continue to be actively involved and participate in market based solutions together with relevant regulations, as they strive to reduce the effect of greenhouse gas emissions on our climate.
Greenhouse gas emission reporting is an increasingly important consideration for those organizations involved in activities that produce such gases. Regulation is forcing these companies to consider their reporting methods and many are turning to software and web-based applications specifically design to assist organizations to gather the relevant carbon emissions data, manage the tracking and reporting of GHGs, and ultimately monetize the various components of a pro-actively managed carbon emissions program
