Climate Action Plan

Create Your Decarbonization Strategy and Roadmap

In response to increasing expectations from consumers, investors, employees, and other key stakeholders, corporate climate commitments are at an all-time high. But committing to cut emissions and executing on those claims are two very different things. With so much ambiguity around climate action, many businesses find themselves stuck on how to actually get started.

Our team will guide you through the smoke and mirrors of the decarbonization landscape. You’ll walk away with a climate action plan tailored to your unique needs, providing you a realistic and well-aligned strategy for communicating progress, reducing your emissions impact, and delivering on your commitments.

Climate Action in Practice

As a business, you have a responsibility to be transparent about your commitments. But with so much climate jargon out there, this can be a real challenge. Here are a few commons terms to help you understand the climate action landscape:

Net Zero

To reach “Net Zero,” a business must reduce
scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions to zero or to a
residual level that is aligned with limiting
global temperature rise to 1.5°C.

Climate Positive

A climate positive business goes beyond
net zero by removing additional CO2 from
the atmosphere through projects such as reforestation and carbon storage.

Carbon Offsetting

Companies can account for unavoidable
emissions by purchasing carbon offsets – this strategy should be used after your initial
reduction efforts.
