Stand out as a sustainable business

We make carbon accounting clear and measurable. By tracking your emissions, you can identify opportunities to reduce impact and offset your footprint. Our reporting ensures you can accurately track and communicate your sustainability progress to your business partners.

Carbon Accounting

Understanding our environmental impact is becoming just as important as understanding our financial performance.

Carbon accounting helps us measure, track, and report the emissions generated by a business. This can give the business owner a clear picture of their environmental footprint and where improvements can be made. Some businesses have an obligation to report their emissions, but it’s not just about compliance. It’s about making smarter decisions, improving efficiency, and positioning your business for a sustainable future.

  • Identify opportunities to reduce costs and waste
  • Strengthen your reputation and brand value
  • Meet growing reporting and compliance requirements
  • Take practical steps toward long-term sustainability

Measure

In today’s environmentally-conscious landscape, many large companies demand strict adherence to rigorous carbon accounting and sustainability practices from their partners and suppliers. We understand that for small businesses, it can be daunting to measure and manage your carbon emissions effectively.

That is why we provide a streamlined solution tailored to small businesses, so you can confidently measure your carbon emissions and gain a clear understanding of your environmental impact.

Understanding your carbon footprint starts with an accurate measurement. We will look at your direct emissions, purchased energy and impacts from your supply chain. With Emerald, you will have emissions data aligned with recognised New Zealand and international reporting standards.

Reduce

Once you have measured your emissions, the next step is finding realistic ways to reduce them. 

We can help you look for reduction opportunities in your operational activities, energy use, transport, waste and supply chain.

By proactively reducing your carbon footprint with Emerald, your business will stay ahead of evolving environmental compliance and sustainability expectations in New Zealand.

Offset

Carbon offset initiatives help balance the emissions you can’t eliminate. This may include supporting reforestation projects or renewable energy initiatives.

We can help you find and support verified initiatives that align with your values and recognised global standards. 

Investing in offset initiatives allows your business to balance the unavoidable emissions while demonstrating your environmental responsibility to customers and partners.

Emerald will help you improve your position on sustainability and supports long-term brand credibility.
