Summary
Concerning increasing carbon emissions and resulting climate change discussions, methods to assess corporate carbon emissions gain importance in research and practice. A transparent and integrated method for decision support to control ratios like eco-efficiency does not exist. Against this background, a concept for the implementation of carbon emission accounting indicators into decision-making processes has been developed, which consists of different aggregation levels and their connections. Within this contribution, a model for the level of internal planning is presented and applied to assess carbon reduction provisions of a dyeing company.
