The objective of this project is to help build awareness about Climate Accounting, the Climate Action and Accounting Special Interest Group (CA2SIG) and all related issues of interest.
To accomplish this objective, this page will:
- Provide a central repository for listing article ideas.
- Provide best practices / formats for writing and publishing an article.
- Develop a list of publication sources / distribution for climate accounting articles.
- Establish a publication calendar to help the group plan group-related communications.
