Carbon Management
You will have heard many things already about the planet being under threat from Greenhouse gases. Essentially Carbon Dioxide (CO2) is produced in our everyday lives by our transport, our homes and our use of energy. Our aim is to help you work out what impact you are having on the planet, by the amount of CO2 that you are creating, at work and at home.
This amount of CO2 used, is your carbon footprint.
Our online calculators can help you work out how much CO2 you are creating at home and by your travel. For businesses the scenario is much more complex. Our ‘business minded’ consultants will need to visit your workplace and assess all aspects of its running to determine your carbon footprint.
Carbon Neutral Status is the ultimate aim. This means that you are no longer producing harmful Carbon emissions. However, to produce no carbon we have to stand still, earn no money and have no fun. We don’t want you to do that, so with the use of our proven techniques, we can offer ways to reduce your carbon. Initiatives like this can be grant funded and they can have massive paybacks in terms of your energy bills reducing, or by reduced taxation. Setting reduction targets for the future is a way of reducing your carbon emissions further, but in order to have fun and make money, the only real alternative to reducing your carbon emissions to zero is to offset. Offsetting is paying for others in the World, be it the developing World or in your local community to reduce their carbon emissions. You are now Carbon Neutral. Congratulations!
To recap;
- Reduce carbon usage and save money.
- Set targets for year on year reduction, through capital expenditure which might be grant funded or tax deductible.
- Offset outstanding carbon emissions, to become Carbon Neutral.
How can you reduce carbon?
Talk to one of our consultants. We have the know how to reduce your carbon in a variety of measures. And less wasted energy, means lower bills.
How can you set targets for future reductions?
Our consultants can work out where you are today and help you through a benchmarking plan for further year on year reductions.
What is offsetting?
Our consultants can explain further the procedure set out by the Kyoto Protocol on offsetting. This Protocol states that governments and private companies can earn carbon credits that can be traded on the marketplace. Any carbon offsetting project must produce authentic benefits and are genuinely “additional” activities that would not otherwise be undertaken. We take great pride in ensuring our offsetting activities follow this Protocol.
How can you offset?
We guide you through the process of offsetting and help you make the right choice. We audit the offsetting projects to ensure you are getting exactly what you pay for.
