CARBOn MAnAGEMEnT INDUSTRY OVERVIEW Whilst, on a global scale, Australia’s greenhouse gas emissions are relatively small, on a per capita basis, we rank as one of the three highest greenhouse polluters on the planet. The Australian Government is committed to turning this around through an ambitious Carbon Management agreement that will challenge businesses in many sectors to reduce emissions by between 5% and 15% by 2020 and by 60% by 2050. Achieving these targets will require the services of skilled carbon auditors, brokers and managers fully conversant with the economic, environmental, legal and asset/ buildings performance aspects of the new carbon emissions environment. • The asset and performance requirements of the new carbon emissions environment • The environmental, ecological and sustainability requirements and impacts of carbon trading and carbon management on the operations of business, and other organisations in the Australian economy. Bond’s teaching methodology involves a combination of lectures, tutorials, seminars, examinations, projects, presentations, assignments, computer labs and industry projects.
