Carbon Neutral status is for businesses who are trying to offset the Carbon Dioxide (CO2) generated from a part or parts of the business and applies to only that part of the business.  This could be manufacturing, delivery, sales, back office, etc. 

There are 3 key stages to achieving a Carbon Neutral footprint:

Assessment

It is clear that little can be achieved until we know how much Carbon Dioxide (CO2) your business generates. In order to assess your Carbon output we have devised a number of tools - our online Carbon Calculator will give a first estimate, alternatively our consultants can work with you to provide a  more in-depth analysis.

At this stage we will be able to confirm the maximum amount of Carbon Dioxide (CO2) to be offset and therefore the costs involved.

Reduction

Once you know how much Carbon you are producing, the next step is to review the ways in which this can be reduced.  There are many ways of reducing the carbon footprint and several of which are free.

We undertake free surveys for our clients, and can provide you with a range of advice and information suitable for your business profile.

Businesses with larger spends (£50k+) may be entitled to a free, government sponsored, energy survey - we do not undertake the surveys but can arrange them for you and assist in the implantation.

Offset

As your Carbon partner, Plant 4 The Planet will work with you to offset all outstanding Carbon Dioxide (CO2).  Offsets work in a number of ways, from planting of trees, the protection of existing woodlands and tropical rainforests to investment in Biomass and other carbon friendly technologies.

All clients who achieve Carbon Neutral status will receive formal certification stating that the business division has achieved a Carbon Neutral Footprint.  All Carbon Neutral clients will also be listed on this site.
