Compare your carbon

Calculate your carbon

Calculating your operation's carbon footprint is the first step to developing a Net Zero plan, "you don't go on a diet without weighing yourself..."

Having visibility of the 'problem' will help you to set realistic science-based Net Zero targets that align with your organisations goals.

At BCR Associates we offer two ways to measure your business' Carbon Footprint:

1. Carbon Calculator - A simple 21 step questionnaire which arms you with a baseline emissions figure (tCO2e) with totals for Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions.
    
2. Visible Carbon - A more detailed online tool that using purchase ledger data to establish your Carbon Footprint inline with Scope 1, 2 and 3 broken down by nominal codes to allow you to capture all sources of emission and report progress regularly without needing hours of specialist analysis.
