Carbon Footprint Certification
What does it mean?
It means that your business has made the commitment to carry out a carbon footprint measurement that is consistent with the latest ISO 14064-1 international standard for carbon accounting.
This is a big deal! Measuring your carbon footprint is the most essential step in understanding where you can strategically reduce emissions in the future. By going the step further and offsetting your emissions today, you are taking immediate responsibility for the impact that your business has created.
The decade of action is upon us. Our goal is to see all businesses measuring, offsetting and reducing their carbon emissions to ensure that we stay on track for the Paris Climate goal of keeping global temperature increases to 1.5 degrees above pre-industrial levels.
Whilst it is necessary to be aware of the challenges that humans, animals and the environment face, it is important to focus on the solutions available and the positive impact that we can have individually and collectively. As businesses, your willingness to do your part by investing, and pushing for innovation in areas of carbon reduction will play an essential role in Aotearoa’s transition to a low carbon economy.
An Ekos Carbon Footprint certification is not only a way to show your customers and clients that you are taking climate change seriously, it is a way for you to significantly influence your supply chain and get them on board the Zero Carbon waka.
