Raul Carlson
I have worked with Lars during his time as project manager at SIS between 2001 and 2009. 'Project manager' is a far too humble title for the work he did for the ISO 14000-standards development. He was participating in the development at all levels, from the practical work to the visions. Practically he was an excellent secretary at national and international meetings, socially he was always supportive beyond expectations, and intellectually he always carried and encouraged positive visions for the global results of the standards. Lars Jonsson is an excellent competence and a working partner. He is indeed recommended!

Nov 2001 - 2002
Key objective of the working group was to establish a process for developing a technically rigorous but policy neutral guideline that would be applicable regardless a country’s current climate change policy, especially its participation in the United Nation’s Kyoto Protocol. The development was then carried out under ISO and resulted in the publication of the ISO 14064:2006 standard on quantification and reporting of greenhouse gas emissions and removals.
