Are you struggling to tackle your organisation’s carbon footprint? Are you wondering:
Offering full carbon footprint services, Grain can help.
Whether you’re looking to conduct your business’ first greenhouse gas inventory or building on a base year with more detailed data, we can offer our expertise.
Your company’s carbon footprint measures the outputs of actions (e.g. travel, investing, purchasing, manufacturing) and in turn, their impact on the planet. To meet Paris Agreement commitments, it is vital for all organisations to identify and be responsible for the emissions that your organisation releases into the atmosphere.
While the word carbon is often put in front of emissions, footprint and reductions, we are usually referring to a variety of greenhouse gases (GHGs). The most common GHGs are carbon dioxide (CO₂), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N₂O), and ozone (O3). Each gas has a different potency and warming impact. For example, methane is about 30 times more potent than carbon dioxide as a heat-trapping gas, but it dissipates faster.
CO₂e means carbon dioxide equivalent, a metric that considers all greenhouse gases and their different global warming impacts. This comparable figure is usually reported on an annual basis.
According to the GHG Corporate Protocol, emissions are classified into Scope 1, 2, and 3 based on where they originate:
The Grain team is here to help you measure a detailed carbon footprint, guiding you through a data collection process tailored to your specific industry and needs. We use an online data gathering platform aligned to the GHG Protocol Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standard, assuring that our emissions calculations can be trusted and communicated confidently.
A figure of total tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent emissions (tCO₂e) will be calculated with a breakdown of sources and scopes. We provide data visualisations demonstrating the key areas of emissions from your business and where to focus reduction targets.
Having a full carbon footprint allows you to be transparent with your stakeholders including customers, suppliers, and employees, demonstrating that you are serious about positive change.
