Corporate Responsibility Support

A number of organisations offer support with Corporate Responsibility, either as holistic consultants or as specialists in a particular field. Eventia does not endorse these organisation's services, but provides them as a resource for members to evaluate to support their Corporate Responsibility activity. However Eventia do work with The Carbon Consultancy, as their preferred carbon partner, for the One Future Programme.

The Carbon Consultancy
The Carbon Consultancy specialises in the delivery of carbon emissions reporting, management, reduction and offset strategies. Its clients are predominantly from the travel industry and service sector where it works with its clients to support an understanding of the commercial and environmental importance of carbon management. The company has invested considerable time and research in its data reporting products which are designed to automate reporting and carbon management, enabling reduction of emissions and support for education, information and motivation initiatives. The Carbon Consultancy supports its clients with carbon reporting and carbon responsible procurement, creating carbon responsible supply chains, educating consumers and driving behavioural change. In the confused and complex landscape of corporate carbon, the company provides clear direction and support in line with best practice standards in the sector, enabling its clients to deliver long term, tangible emissions reduction benefits.

To better measure, store and understand your carbon emissions Eventia has engaged with The Carbon Consultancy to provide members with highly useful reporting tools. You will be able to calculate CO2 emissions for flight, vehicle, rail and power; save this in an on-line account for your business or by event and then review this information as required and offset if desired, all through the one tool.

Carbon calculators
Carbon calculators are to be found primarily in an online environment for transport and domestic power usage and are used to promote behavioural change and/or support the purchase of carbon offset units. These calculators vary in their output and for corporate use only calculators which use DEFRA or GHG values should be used. The UK government online calculator is available at http://actonco2.direct.gov.uk/index.html

The data from this online tool is available via a webservice, with additional GHG data and refined real world emissions values from www.carbonresponsible.com, where you can access a directory of online calculators and understand their values and datasets.
