Roadmap to net zero
A carbon footprint is more than just a snapshot of your emissions—it’s an essential roadmap to reduce risk and achieve your climate goals. At Carbon Direct, we look beyond benchmarks and averages, focusing on your unique business emissions profile to help you activate your climate strategy.
What's in a footprint?
Operations. Employees. Partners. Customers. Suppliers. Facilities. All of these (and more) contribute to your carbon footprint. Some of the most common sources of emissions are intuitive. Others are complicated and unique to your operations.
We use our scientific expertise and industry experience to evaluate every facet of your emissions and uncover hidden sources so there are no surprises, and fewer risks.
Goods and services
Everything your business spends money on has associated greenhouse gas emissions. Goods (like furniture and electronics) and services (like legal and HR vendors) contribute to your business' footprint.
