Meeting Notes 

Continued discussion of which basis to use for the activity hierarchy. Decided to go with the IPCC's activity hierarchy.

Reminder: our aim is to describe how different impact calculations are being done, not to prescribe a certain calculation method(s).

Homework: see if we can find the IPCC, ISIC or GHG Scope 3 tables/categories in a format in which we can pull it into a database.

Next meeting: Describe (and distinguish) the calculators from 11 May 2021's meeting according to the IPCC categories on which they report (calculators: https://www.footprintcalculator.org/ and https://offset.climateneutralnow.org/footprintcalc).

After next meeting: Do the same for agents and states, i.e.

1. get/create a classification system for agents;
2. describe the two exemplary calculators based on which agent categories they report;
3. get/create a classification system for states;
4. describe the two exemplary calculators based on which states/state categories/state types they report.

Maybe have a future discussion on how fiat currencies came to be "fiat", i.e. no longer backed by gold.

We didn't get the time to IWA Voluntary Ecological Markets Overview white paper. Will do it in a future session.
