Carbon dioxide equivalent is a standardised unit of measurement to indicate the global warming potential (GWP) of other greenhouse gases, expressed in terms of the GWP of one unit of carbon dioxide.
The place where effective management and control of a taxable corporate body is carried on, for the purposes of the OECD model tax convention.
 
CO<sub>2</sub>-e is used to measure releasing (or avoiding releasing) different greenhouse gases against a common standard.
 
 
CO<sub>2</sub>-e is also written ''CO<sub>2</sub>e'' or ''CO<sub>2</sub>eq''.
 
 
It is generally expressed in MtCO<sub>2</sub>-e, the equivalent of one metric tonne of carbon dioxide.
