How it works:
Our Carbon Accountants establish your business carbon footprint using The Greenhouse Gas Protocol Corporate Reporting and Accounting Standards and the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA) annual UK Government Conversion Factors for Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Reporting, which are the most widely used and globally recognised standards. We then offset your carbon footprint with a basket of high quality, internationally audited and verified Carbon Credits.
Bronze and Silver covers all business scope 1 & 2 CO₂ emissions (meaning all direct and indirect emissions from the use of purchased fuel for vehicles – petrol, diesel, electricity, and for gas and electricity for heating and cooling of premises).
Gold covers all scope 1 & 2 as above, plus part of scope 3.
Platinum: We can accredit larger business members, but they will have likely already undertaken an independent Carbon Audit or Carbon Footprint Assessment, have a robust carbon reduction plan in place and know their full carbon footprint across scope 1,2 and 3.
Contact us today to become Carbon Neutral accredited in days, not weeks!

Climate Positive Accreditation
Beyond Carbon Neutral is our highest accreditation, Climate Positive.
Climate Positive is achieved when a business offsets more greenhouse gases than they emit, which is hugely beneficial to the planet and environmentally awesome!
With a robust carbon reduction plan in place, YOUR business can become certified ‘Climate Positive’ when you offset at least 120% of your carbon footprint across scopes 1, 2 and 3 with us.
