Events agency Conference Care has launched a new website for its service: Carbon Consultancy.
Launched in October 2021, Carbon Consultancy aims to help event organisers accurately measure the carbon emissions generated by an event. It also aims to provide solutions which educate, create behaviour change and deliver carbon reductions.
How it works
The consultancy process involves several stages including:
• Gathering initial data from the event organiser and participants to produce an estimated footprint.
• Analysis of the results will be followed up by a detailed interim report, and a meeting making recommendations which specifically aim to reduce emissions at source.
• Once the event has taken place, the carbon footprint will be recalculated based on the final data provided and the impact of these changes assessed.
• The carbon generated will then be offset and certified through a portfolio of Verified Carbon Standard projects or through a client’s own offsetting programme.
Commenting on the service, Chris Peacock (pictured), director, Carbon Consultancy, said “We set out to offer the first, most accurate measurement tool possible. Events are complex, which means that your measurement tool has to be equally sophisticated.
“With over 20 projects completed, we have helped organisations to evaluate their impact, make real reductions and build sustainability into their future decision making and strategies.”
Speaking about the new website, he added: “Carbon Consultancy is a completely separate wing of the company and deserves its own presence on the web. Everything is laid out simply with clear up-front pricing. What’s the cost of measurement and consultancy from start to finish? Often less than £1 per attendee.”
