The GHG Protocol is set to appoint its first-ever CEO, marking a major shift in its institutional evolution. The organization announced that Tim Mohin, former partner and chief of climate and sustainability at Boston Consulting Group, will take on the role.
He is expected to work closely with governments and industry stakeholders to advance a globally consistent carbon accounting framework and strengthen market confidence in emissions disclosures.
