The tertiary sector covers a wide range of activities. It ranges from trade to administration, including transport, financial and real estate activities, business and personal services, education, health and social work. Because of its different sectors of activity, the possibilities for reducing emissions are many and varied.

The secondary sector includes all activities consisting of a more or less elaborate transformation of raw materials (manufacturing industry, construction). Industrial actors and their financiers are directly concerned by the anticipation of climate change and the construction of a low-carbon economy

The primary sector includes all activities whose purpose is to exploit natural resources: agriculture, fishing, forestry, mining, deposits. This sector is the first to be affected by global warming and could therefore benefit from the reduction of emissions, including its own. Agriculture and the agri-food industry are particularly vulnerable to the effects of climate change.

Calculating one's carbon impact on our environment starts with an intention to work in an eco-responsible way.
