Effective reduction of greenhouse gas emissions relies on measurement and management. Greenleaf Advisors works with the Open Footprint Forum to develop a universal data model for tracking emissions.

The Open Footprint Data Model provides a structure for those tasked with managing environmental footprint data. Aligned with leading standards like the GHG Protocol, this model simplifies data management and streamlines reporting. Its standardized architecture accelerates application development, eases system integration, and improves data sharing across the value chain.

Greenleaf Advisors is actively involved in the Open Footprint Forum, leading outreach and engagement efforts while also contributing to the model’s technical development. We recently helped convene a workshop in Chicago, gathering feedback from technology providers, financial institutions, food businesses, and other stakeholders.
