New Australia & New Zealand GHG Calculators Launched by IWCA

IWCA just released TWO new GHG calculators to help wineries in Australia and New Zealand conduct emissions inventories. These tools are regionally adapted, aligned to ISO-14064 standards, and cover Scopes 1-3. These new calculators, which use Australia and New Zealand-based emissions factors, are an exciting addition to our existing GHG calculator for US-based wineries.
