Can Engineers Agree on Carbon Emissions?

Several engineering societies have come together to tackle the issue managing of carbon emissions, representing over a million engineers and technical professionals. The divergent group proposes to create scorecards that will report on the efficacy of management technologies as well as identify barriers to proper measurement and analysis of carbon emissions. So far the group has focused on electric power and transportation, but plans to expand to other areas. Which arenas are the most important to analyze? Could this collaboration finally force corporations to make changes to their carbon footprint? Can engineers from different disciplines all agree on the key initiatives?
