The Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Protocol is a set of standards and related guidance on accounting for and reporting GHG emissions. Its ongoing development, which has spanned more than two decades, represents the work of a multistakeholder partnership (the “GHG Protocol organization”) consisting of businesses, nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), governments, and other entities convened by the World Resources Institute (WRI), a U.S.-based environmental NGO, and the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD), a Geneva-based coalition of nearly 200 international companies.
