Carbon Footprinting

Share |   Print

SRC’s Carbon Footprinting service helps businesses and organizations calculate their carbon footprint, which is a calculation of the total greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from an organization, product, event or person.

GHGs can be emitted through all sorts of activities including transportation, land clearing, and the use and production of materials and fuels. We use recognized standards and guidelines to calculate emissions. Once you have calculated your carbon footprint, we recommend taking the next step by setting a reduction target and developing a carbon reduction plan.

This service is for businesses and organizations that are:

  • Facing increasing energy costs;
  • Searching for the simplest and most cost effective solutions to increase efficiencies and decrease costs; and
  • Planning for increasing consumer and regulatory pressures to be green.

SRC’s Carbon Footprinting service can be customized to include a range of options, including:

  • Onsite consultation
  • Review of regulations affecting your organization
  • Assistance in data collection
  • Custom report outlining current GHG emissions
  • Recommendations on targets
  • Prioritized list of cost-effective ways to reduce emissions
  • A carbon reduction program
