Vietnamese businesses aim for Net Zero by 2050, supported by government policies on green finance and carbon markets, with strategic planning to meet international environmental standards and reduce emissions.
Net Zero aims to balance emitted and removed greenhouse gases by 2050, crucial for combating climate change. Achieving Net Zero requires significant investment and strategic changes in energy production, efficiency, and carbon removal.
Carbon Accounting, or Greenhouse Gas Accounting, emerged in the early 2000s. It measures emissions across three scopes: direct (Scope 1), indirect from energy (Scope 2), and other indirect sources (Scope 3).
The GHG protocol, also known as the Greenhouse Gas Protocol, provides standards to create a common foundation for various systems of measuring and reporting greenhouse gas emissions inventories.
Businesses must report Scope 1 (direct emissions), Scope 2 (indirect emissions from purchased energy), and Scope 3 (other indirect emissions) to contribute positively to society, avoid legal risks, and stay competitive in the global green market.
Green transformation is a global trend and a millennium goal aimed at reducing human impact on the environment. This involves several activities including green energy transition, green industry, sustainable energy, and circular economy.
Dual transformation has been mentioned by many countries and is an inevitable trend of the future. VertZéro will explain how these intertwined trends bring solutions to issues such as resource efficiency, supply chain risks, and the need for innovation in an ever-changing world.
Vietnam is expected to be able to sell 57 million carbon credits to international organizations, earning hundreds of millions of dollars. However, the carbon credit term is still unfamiliar to many individuals.
Climate change is one of the most pressing issues facing the global economy today, and its implications are particularly significant for the manufacturing industry.
Climate change is one of the most pressing issues facing the global economy today, and its implications are particularly significant for the manufacturing industry.
The alarming rise in global temperatures is directly linked to the escalating carbon emissions stemming from industrial activities, transportation systems, and energy production. In this context, stakeholders, particularly businesses that contribute significantly to greenhouse gas emissions, must take decisive action to mitigate their environmental impact.
The fashion industry faces mounting pressure to address its significant environmental impact, with its carbon footprint spanning the entire value chain - from material sourcing to production, distribution, and beyond.
The albedo effect is a fundamental yet often underappreciated factor in the Earth's climate system. It represents how surfaces reflect or absorb solar energy, playing a crucial role in determining global temperatures.
Permaculture management addresses food insecurity by promoting sustainable, self-reliant farming that includes both high- and low-market-demand crops. It enables the cultivation of uncultivated foods, benefiting tribal and forest-dwelling communities.
In today’s society, nearly every facet of daily life is intertwined with digital technology - be it through smartphones, internet browsing, or various smart devices in our homes and vehicles.
Keeping up with the evolving guidelines of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) is crucial for businesses to ensure compliance and make well-informed financial decisions.
Carbon dioxide (CO₂) is a key component of Earth's atmosphere and climate system. While naturally occurring, human activities have significantly increased its levels, driving global warming and environmental instability.
Rising CO₂ levels from human activities are driving global warming, extreme weather, and ocean acidification, disrupting ecosystems and economies. As a key greenhouse gas, CO₂ traps heat, intensifying climate instability.
Vietnam’s export economy has been dealt a sudden shock by the Trump administration’s new U.S. tariffs announced in April 2025. These tariffs - a steep 46% levy on all Vietnamese imports - threaten to ripple across multiple industries, from electronics and textiles to furniture and agriculture. Such broad measures raise urgent questions for Vietnamese exporters: How will these tariffs impact different sectors, and what can businesses do to adapt?
The Vietnamese furniture industry is facing a pivotal challenge due to a recent spike in U.S. import tariffs on furniture from Vietnam. In April 2025, the U.S. administration unexpectedly announced a steep 46% “reciprocal” tariff on imports from Vietnam. This move has sent shockwaves through Vietnam’s wood product exporters, as the United States is Vietnam’s largest furniture market, accounting for $9.1 billion of Vietnam’s $16.3 billion in wood exports last year.
