The Goal

Carbon Trust states that “A carbon footprint measures the total greenhouse gas emissions caused directly and indirectly by a person, organization, event or product.” Our carbon footprint relates to the impact our organization has on the environment. Our employees work remotely from their homes in different cities and use computers and online web services by Microsoft, Amazon, and other service providers.

We would like you to help us analyze, identify and document steps to take in measuring and managing our business carbon footprint including that of our service providers so we can get to Net Zero.
