Commercial benefits in doing the right thing

Climakind is uniquely positioned to help your business reduce global carbon emissions by cancelling genuine carbon emission credits and thereby discover the commercial benefits of long-term emission reduction targets.

As well as being environmentally responsible and showing good corporate governance, there are many business opportunities in offsetting carbon emissions and competitive advantages that await early movers.

Appeal to customers, employees, shareholders, suppliers and the community by positioning your brand as environmentally concerned and visibly active in reducing carbon emissions.

Building a green profile

Boost the environmental recognition of your organisation. There are many commercial benefits in reducing carbon emissions that, if acted upon early, can create competitive advantages – such as improving practices, optimising production and processes and reducing energy consumption and waste.

Your organisation can reduce costs and boost sales, and build a stronger corporate image and brand equity.

Cancelling carbon credits to match your carbon emissions helps deliver the recognition of positive climate change brand management and builds a stronger environmental profile.

Joining Climakind

We encourage reducing and neutralising emissions.  It is important to measure and set carbon emission reduction targets and at the same time cancel carbon credits to match the emissions for which you are responsible. 

Our tips and information help your business on the way to being EmissionsAware™.  During the process of reducing emissions, which may take years, you can Climakind the carbon emissions for which you are responsible.  First you have to calculate your annual carbon emissions.

Calculating carbon emissions

If you know your annual carbon emissions (carbon footprint) you can use it when joining Climakind.

Otherwise we provide two solutions to calculate annual carbon emissions, a simple calculation or our EmissionsAware™ program. Our calculator quickly provides an estimation of your organisation’s annual carbon emissions from the three main energy activities.

Use our Emissions Calculator to determine your carbon emissions.

Our second solution, the EmissionsAware™ program, is our carbon management plan. It is more involved, setting long term targets for organisations to achieve a sustainable (low-carbon) future.

The EmissionsAware™ program has six main steps:

1. Identify who will responsible for managing the sustainable initiatives
2. Determine the scope of your emissions (the parts of your business you want to include)
3. Measure and report the current emissions
4. Set targets to reduce the emissions over a number of years (1yr, 3yr, 5yr)
5. Monitor and report the progress on a regular basis
6. Reward your team for achieving the goals and certification.

We guide you through the process with presentations, reference material and workshops. Please contact us for more details.
