Welcome to "What Would a CC-P® Do?"

What This Series Will Do
Every week, we publish a single question built around a real situation a climate change professional might encounter. Three plausible answers. One that holds up. A short reasoning paragraph that explains why the others fall short.
The format is simple by design. Commit to an answer before the reasoning is revealed. Then read why.
Why We're Doing This
A CC-P® works at the intersection of climate science, governance, risk, GHG accounting, and decision support. The work shows up as judgment calls, choices about which framework applies, which data to trust, how to translate a technical finding into something a board or a community can act upon.
This series puts those judgment calls in front of you. Some you'll answer correctly without thinking. Others will surface the reasoning that separates a working answer from a defensible one. Either way, you get a window into what the Certified Climate Change Professional® (CC-P®) credential is built around.
For prospective candidates, it's a way to test your readiness. For hiring managers, it's a sample of the work product the credential signals. For practicing CC-P® holders, it's a check on your own thinking.
Where to Follow Along
New questions drop every other week on ACCO's LinkedIn page with the hashtag #CCPQuestion. Each question will be archived here as well.
