It enables companies to measure the carbon impact of their business activities and identify the highest carbon producing activities. Users enter information about their business activities such as transport, energy use, fuel type and materials. The platform is fully compliant with the internationally recognised standard GHG Protocol and helps companies become carbon neutral in four easy steps:

1. Measure & Understand.
2. Reduce & Avoid
3. Ofset residual emissions

4. Showcase & Disclose

The platform is designed in a way that multiple users of a company can contribute information allowing for greater oversight and understanding of where the biggest carbon impacts lie. The platform not only looks at the embedded carbon savings of reusing, redeploying and recycling materials, but it also takes transportation into consideration.

The CO2.expert platform also contains a user friendly checklist to help businesses complete all the steps necessary to achieve PAS 2060, the internationally recognised specifcation for carbon neutral status..
