What makes your organisation special:
The Carbon Consultancy Limited provides independent specialist support for companies who wish to measure, manage, report and reduce carbon emissions from the operation of their business. The company has developed software solutions to support data gathering and assessment, which support the work of our clients to make more carbon efficient choices, save operating costs and understand the relevance of carbon to their business. The company advises and supports private sector clients and industry associations to develop coherent and practical solutions for carbon management. Its consultants have specialist expertise in those areas most relevant to carbon reduction and strategy, providing its clients with a wealth of experience. The linkage of cost to carbon, highlighting the pitfalls of "carbon neutrality", deployment of data and effective communications are all areas where the company has demonstrated a leading edge for its clients. It was the first UK company to advance Scope 3 emissions reporting to support a clearer undertsanding of travel mode impacts, which is a major carbon cost for business. The company understands the commercial relationship between environmental impact and profitable operations, which enables it to provide valuable advice for its clients and guide them through the range of options open to them, whilst avoiding the increasing risks associated with offset dominant or aspirational based communications as a primary response, that may create a future brand risk. Carbon management in either a voluntary or regulatory framework represents a key challenge for companies and The Carbon Consultancy is ideally placed to help its clients meet the challenge and achieve operations that are both carbon responsible and profitable.
