Independent verification of your carbon footprint
Independent verification of your carbon footprint
With the UK government committed to reducing the UK's total greenhouse gas emissions by 60% by 2050 in a bid to tackle global warming, measuring and reporting an organization's carbon footprint is becoming a priority.
Climate change is a global issue which demands the attention of organizations, governments and individuals. Forward-thinking organizations have begun voluntarily declaring their Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions for reasons such as risk management, cost reduction, brand protection, and attracting socially responsible investment. And in the process those organizations have prepared themselves for the GHG legislation of tomorrow.
Climate change is the ultimate effect of large carbon footprints. Greenhouse gases, whether naturally or human-produced, contribute to the warming of the planet. From 1990 to 2005, carbon dioxide emissions increased by 31 percent. 2000 to 2009 was the warmest decade on record worldwide (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Climate Change Indicators Report).
We can independently verify the accuracy of this data and your carbon footprint. You’ll understand the level of emissions you need to reduce and/or offset in or to become ‘carbon neutral’. CFV is fundamental to provide credibility, reassuring internal and external stakeholders that the carbon footprint of your organization is accurate, complete and compliant with the major GHG reporting standards. Transparency of your carbon footprint calculations gives you real integrity.
Relying on other businesses to tackle global warming is no longer an option. Each organization must take responsibility, verifying your organizations carbon footprint is a great first step to working towards this.
As experts in this field we can verify your carbon footprint and as a result, you’ll understand the level of emissions you need to reduce and/or offset to become ‘carbon neutral’.
Our CFV service is delivered in accordance with the international management systems standard ISO 14064-1. Our process of third party verification embraces the highest standards of quality assurance and quality control procedures in the industry. So you can be sure that the information we provide is a complete and totally reliable basis for improving your performance in monitoring and reporting emissions.
