PROGRAMME OVERVIEW AND STEPS (click to enlarge)
STEP 1: CALCULATION OF YOUR
CARBON FOOTPRINT
Carbon Neutral will provide your organisation with a tool that
simplifies the collection of the information required to calculate your carbon footprint.Information such as electricity and natural
gas bills, vehicle fleet data, water consumption and building specifics can be
recorded via our Data Collection Questionnaire for the three emission's scopes in
accordance with international standards.
STEP 2: SITE AUDIT AND STAFF SURVEY
A programme team member will conduct
a comprehensive site audit of your business operations which will cover:
Computing and other equipment usage
Lighting technologies and alternatives
Heating, ventilation and cooling system review
Resources, recycling and waste issues
Building fabric and thermal characteristics
Staff comfort, behaviour and attitudes
Other relevant factors contributing to carbon emissions
Additionally, we will provide your organisation with an online staff survey
that will identify their attitudes, awareness levels and ideas in support of
the technical recommendations we may propose. This is a critical
element to the success of the programme as it will highlight any issues or
opportunities for future carbon management.
STEP 3:PRESENT KEY
FINDINGS TO MANAGEMENT
At this stage we will provide your management team with a detailed
presentation of our findings, key issues and next steps.This will include broad recommendations that
can be taken including implementation costs and expected savings.
Your management team will now understand:
Your
organisation's carbon footprint
Key areas
requiring attention into the future
Your
organisation's capacity for change in terms of carbon reduction
Actions that
can be taken to reduce carbon emissions and costs
Offsetting options
STEP 4:CUSTOMISED ACTION
PLANNING WORKSHOP
Our experience has shown that incorporating staff in the development of
a prioritisedaction plan is extremely valuable.
We will facilitate a workshop with your Green Team or nominated members
of staff to ensure that the recommended actions we have identified are
understood and able to be implemented in the most effective manner.This will result in a highly personalised and
appropriate 12 month action plan designed to reduce your carbon footprint and
manage associated staff awareness issues at your organisation.
Through careful and considered implementation you can be confident that
future actions will have the desired effect.Carbon Neutral prioritises its recommendations as follows:

The 'cultural fit'
with your organisation
Testimonial
"Carbon Neutral's Four Step Carbon Reduction Programme
has greatly assisted Generation Projects in understanding our carbon footprint
and what the most effective ways to reduce it are. I was very happy with the
straightforward and practical focus of the programme, and the new and emerging
ideas Carbon Neutral's team brought to the table were particularly
useful." Andrew Auret, Director, Generation
Projects

its practical and straightforward approach.We certainly encourage other businesses to engage with this programme
and we look forward to taking the next steps as guided by our Action
Plan."Damien Eves, Chief Executive

Offsetting Emissions
Climate change is a global
challenge that must be addressed. An important facet of addressing the
challenge is by offsetting non-reducible emissions. Once we have identified
areas where improvements can be made to your carbon footprint, we can make
recommendations about offsetting including verified offset options.
