Important: Report Limitations
ZeroCarbon reports are generated using recognized methodologies and industry-standard emission factors. However:
- • Reports contain estimates based on available data and stated assumptions
- • Scope 3 emissions are inherently uncertain due to value chain data limitations
- • Reports are not third-party verified unless explicitly stated
- • Users are responsible for data accuracy and completeness
- • For regulatory compliance, we recommend engaging certified auditors
Our reports provide a solid foundation for carbon accounting and disclosure, but final compliance responsibility rests with the reporting organization.
