<span style="color: #008000;"><strong>SAP has acquired carbon emissions firm <a href="http://www.clearstandards.com/">Clear Standards</a>.  Clear Standards is a two year old software company based in Sterling, Virginia.</strong></span></p>
<p>Clear Standards develops web applications that helps companies develop strategies for cabon emission management, thus resulting in environmental impact reduction.  For example, Clear Standard&#8217;s software has a way to track the inventory of a company&#8217;s emissions and set regulation monitors.  This enables companies to reduce energy and waste.</p>
<p>The software is especially useful for regulated companies around Europe and companies who have voluntary sustainability programs.  Clear Standards will be rolled into SAP&#8217;s Environment, Safety Management, and Health applications.</p>
<p>&#8220;It is essential that organizations gain actionable insight into their carbon emissions, water consumption, energy use and other environmental factors so they can lower their environmental impact,&#8221; stated SAP co-CEO Leo Apotheker. &#8220;Having this ability also correlates to an organization&#8217;s efficiency and competitiveness.&#8221;</p>
<p>Clear Standards has also developed a free iPhone application called Carbon Tracker.</p>
