2014). Under Kyoto Protocol‚ Emission Trading Scheme has been set up for the purpose of reducing greenhouse gases. It allows emission rights to be traded between countries to help governments meeting the gas emissions reduction target (Evans‚ 2012). However‚ how to report the value of emission rights held by public and private sectors has been a stubborn question to accounting regulation setting board.

Supra-territorial ‘global commons’ problems such as greenhouse gas emission require transborder solutions as globalizing corporations increasingly stretch across different national regulatory regimes. In response‚ the incipient polycentric governance approach promotes cross-influence among public and private institutions at various governance levels from local to global. Notwithstanding‚ corporate frauds such as the Volkswagen emission scandal in 2015 reflect the risk inherent in greater reliance on

If recent rates of growth continue‚ aviation emissions could account for more than 30% of the UK’s emissions by 2050. Our work involves ensuring that these emissions are included in the UK Climate Change Act‚ the EU Emissions Trading System (ETS) and other international frameworks.
