Business Carbon Footprint Assessment

ACHIEVE NET ZERO WITH TUNLEY ENVIRONMENTAL

In a world where we are experiencing rising global temperatures, a high volume of extreme weather events, ocean acidification, just to name a few of the current global climate change issues we are facing; the importance of carbon reduction initiatives is growing, conducting a Carbon Reduction Assessment has become an essential step in the sustainability journey. A Carbon Reduction Assessment, also referred to as a Carbon Footprint Assessment, is a comprehensive analysis of a company’s greenhouse gas emissions from scopes 1, 2 and 3, helping to identify areas where emissions can be reduced. Ultimately, mapping out your path to net zero carbon.

We Are a Team of Qualified Scientists

NOT YOUR TYPICAL CARBON CALCULATORS

A Carbon Reduction Assessment

can provide more value to a business than just proof that steps have been taken to review and reduce carbon and other emissions. With proof of having assessed and reduced and offset carbon usage verified by Tunley Environmental^® as a third party, your business can work towards B-Corp status, bid on government contracts and improve efficiency and cost within the business.

Our team of PhD level scientists work with your business to go beyond crunching the numbers to provide you with clear and comprehensive detail about exactly what your Carbon Emissions are and how to adhere to internationally recognised standards.

Your Business Matters

NET ZERO CARBON FOR YOUR BUSINESS

Our carbon reduction solutions also include Carbon Offsetting, an action or activity that acts as a carbon sink, removing carbon from the atmosphere and allowing businesses to further contribute to achieving a net zero carbon world. This results in reducing carbon emissions and offsetting the remainder in net zero carbon emissions.

Our Carbon Reduction Assessment also presents you with a variety of compelling ways you can communicate your progress to your stakeholders, without unnecessary jargon. To summarise, our Carbon Reduction Assessments are:

MEASURABLE

We measure the sum of all greenhouse gases emitted by the activities of an organisation.

GOALS ORIENTATED

We set out realistic actions and goals for carbon reduction. We also provide the overall resulting reduction in greenhouse gases that these actions would deliver.

ACTIONABLE

We provide clear, actionable steps to offset your existing carbon footprint.

Looking Out For Greenwashing

ELIMINATING GREENWASHING CLAIMS

People are becoming more and more conscious of greenwashing.

Many businesses self-assess their carbon emissions; however, this does not provide independent verification or support in carbon reduction planning. Tunley Environmental can provide your business with a quantified pathway to achieve net zero carbon. Carbon calculators can tell you what your carbon emissions are, but our Carbon Reduction Assessments tell you what you can do to reduce and offset them, with the benefit of full, ongoing support along the way.

Greenwashing, the deceptive practice of making false or exaggerated claims about a company’s environmental impact or sustainability efforts, is a growing concern. To promote authentic sustainability, businesses must adopt proactive strategies:

Embrace transparent and specific language
Verify and validate your claims
Communicate concrete actions and progress
Practice full disclosure
Educate and engage with customers

Carbon Emissions

EXPERT IN ALL THREE SCOPES

Years of Engineering Process Improvement experience has shown us that you can only manage the carbon that you measure. Setting a baseline, using accurate calculations that are peer-reviewed by a team of experts, followed by accurate reporting, lets us help you identify areas of emissions, quantify the size of the baseline, and set solution-focused targets and processes for carbon reduction.

Most Carbon reporting divides your Carbon Emissions into 3 Scopes.

From start to finish the whole team have excelled in communication and support. They made the entire process seemless, and nothing was too much for them. This is my first full experience completing a carbon assessment, and I couldn't have asked for a better company to complete this with.”
