Fighting climate change
We are a carbon negative organisation and have already offset our projected emissions for the next 5 years. For most public sector organisations their supply chain carbon footprint is 80-90%. Co2Analysis uses Artificial Intelligence to automatically measure this from standard public sector finance information down to individual product and service level. This allows you to reduce your emissions through quick wins and then we work with your suppliers to deliver their own net zero plans and feed these into your plan. We help your suppliers become compliant with both Science based targets and the central government standard PPN06 and its successors. - Covid-19 recovery
