Our Comprehensive Carbon Strategy
In this carbon conscious economy numerous companies are already monitoring their carbon footprint and implementing a carbon management strategy. Ecological Sense enables companies to do this in an easy, cost effective manner.
Our Comprehensive Carbon Strategy
At Ecological Sense we have developed a comprehensive carbon strategy which will make your transition to a 'green business' smooth and seamless. Our strategy offers:
Education on Climate Change and on the Reduction of Emissions.
A review of your current energy consumption
A review of your corporate travel requirements
A rigorous assessment of your direct and indirect carbon emissions
A strategy to avoid and reduce these emissions.
Finally, for those emissions that cannot be reduced further we have an extensive portfolio of carbon offsets at your disposal.
Our carbon strategy takes a structured five step approach, making it efficient, transparent and easy to follow:
Educate
Audit

Audit
Ecological Sense will provide a tailor made Carbon Audit to assess your business’ direct and indirect carbon emissions. Please see Our Carbon Audit for a details of our audit process.
Reduce
The results of the carbon audit will be used to determine areas where carbon emissions can be reduced outright and can be tackled straight away. Our tailor made advice and solutions, as well as education and training will reduce your carbon footprint. We provide information on how to reduce your personal emissions, which can be applied both at work and at home.
Offset
After reducing your carbon emissions, we can tackle the remaining emissions by offsetting them. Ecological Sense offers a series of certified or verified carbon offsetting projects for those emissions which cannot be eliminated. Your business can become Carbon Neutral by offsetting these remaining emissions through our carbon projects.
Communicate
Inform your customers and acquire a competitive edge.
It is important to inform your customers of your business’ commitment to carbon reduction, and to let them know that your business is 'going green'. Ecological Sense will communicate your carbon status on its website and communiques.
The use of our 'carbon neutral' and our ‘carbon conscious' logos as well as our ‘Carbon Reduction Certificate’ is designed to record and report on the carbon status and reduction commitment of a business. They are intended to inform potential and existing customers about the commitment to the environment of a business, so that they can consider whether the business is carbon conscious and thereby inform their decision whether to engage with that company or not.
Your business will be awarded the appropriate logo:
