The aim of this ICT Footprint measurement tool is to develop a method and technique which is flexible and complementary to existing methods that cities already use. It draws on existing international standards and methodologies (such as the ITU‘s L.1400 recommendations, GHG protocol, the Carbon Disclosure Project, as well as standards from International Bodies such as ISO14064) to enable cities to measure, compare and report on ICT’s direct carbon footprint at a city level.
