All companies listed on the main market of the London Stock Exchange will have to report their greenhouse gas emissions from April 2013. The UK is the first country to make it compulsory for companies to include emissions data for their entire organisation in their annual financial reports. Reporting GHG emissions is the first vital step towards reductions but, at the same time, provides businesses with great opportunities for cost savings.
