CARBON MONITORING SOFTWARE.

Eventually, when carbon trading becomes commonplace worldwide in an effort to put climate change in check, companies will have to make decisions. To buy or sell carbon credits or to invest in carbon reducing projects or technologies, for example. To make these decisions, companies will need specialized software to track and analyze their carbon emissions and carbon abatement programs, as well as gain access to carbon trading markets to buy and sell carbon credits.

Software to meet those needs has already been launched by Australian company CO2SIM. The software makes use of the Internet and corporate Intranets to analyze company emissions and credit trading strategy. For now, since carbon trading is in its infancy, CO2SIM will be running simulations to be be held in Australia, Europe and Canada in the next few months. Visit CO2SIM at http://www.co2sim.com/ .
