SBC performs carbon
footprints to help companies measure their greenhouse
gas emissions and quantify their climate impacts. We work diligently with
our clients to help them understand where their emissions are
coming from, then develop reduction plans that meet their goals
and stay ahead of regulation.

Corporate Climate Policy
SBC works with clients ranging from
multi-national, billion dollar companies to renewable energy startups
to help them save money through carbon reduction. Our team leads
businesses through the carbon footprint process, allowing our clients
to:
Learn how to measure their carbon
footprint, from identifying and using the best available tools
and protocols to setting the right scope and boundaries.
Develop internal tracking, metrics,
data collection and management systems.
Set meaningful emissions reduction
goals through industry benchmarking and alignment with larger
corporate goals.
Put climate impacts in quantifiable terms so they are grounded
in reality and easily communicated to employees and external
stakeholders.
Examples of Our Work
Global green design
firm
SBC worked with a cross-functional green team at this global architecture firm
to gather information and develop effective carbon reduction actions and materials.
We developed content for its intranet to describe different actions employees
could take, and how each action would reduce environmental impacts and save money.
This helped communicate complicated information around emissions reduction in
plain language that employees could understand.
Washington State’s
First Credit Union
Over time, we’ve worked with employees from facilities, accounting, communications
and upper management to reduce the company’s energy and paper use, waste
and carbon emissions.
To achieve these results, SBC:
Guided the development of short
and long-term goals that were successfully adopted by the Board
of Directors;
Set up more effective data gathering systems;
and
Created tracking metrics to ensure
effective and ongoing carbon management.
“Fighting
global warming is extremely important to Verity Credit Union’s
members and staff. SBC helped us to see how we could take
a leadership role by conducting our first carbon footprint,
helping us identify reduction goals appropriate for our
vision and
develop a practical, achievable
implementation
plan.”
