In 2024, an estimated 92% of UK local authorities reported on Scope 1 and 2 emissions, but supply chain emissions – a key part of Scope 3 – remain largely overlooked. So, how can local authorities make meaningful progress in tracking and reporting these emissions? In our latest blog, SmartCarbon Consultant, Jack Spence, breaks down the challenges local authorities face in collecting supply chain data and identifying carbon hotspots. Plus, he shares actionable insights on how they can drive real progress in 2025. https://loom.ly/hCDHsg4

Talking table football, behaviour change and tiramisu with SmartCarbon’s latest recruit. We’re delighted to welcome Giustina Diana to SmartCarbon as the latest addition to our consultancy team. We sat down with Giustina to find out more about her career to date and the importance of hope in fighting the climate emergency.

WELCOME ABOARD! Both Brief2Event & Westcott Medical are working with us to measure and report on emissions with the aim of implementing a meaningful carbon reduction plan and playing their part in the UK's efforts to reach Net Zero.

What our clients say 💬 "SmartCarbon helped us to drive our Net Zero strategy. The SmartCarbon calculator is a user-friendly tool that has allowed us to measure our carbon footprint and create a set of objectives to reduce our emissions. The SmartCarbon staff are passionate about this and it has had a great impact on us, as we have engaged from day one."

This interactive map from Carbon Brief pulls together research from across the globe that shows how changes in the climate are impacting extreme weather. It’s a stark reminder that the climate crisis affects us all—and without meaningful action, these impacts will only intensify. https://lnkd.in/gjkuuG73

Our last CPD courses of 2024 are running this week. These sessions are designed for environmental managers, energy managers, facilities managers, sustainability champions, business leaders, and directors looking to advance their understanding of carbon footprinting. You can book onto this session by following the link here: https://loom.ly/EfPDxbY Can't make it? We have more sessions coming in January, too.

Reflecting on a busy couple of days at #NZNEESummit. It was great to hear about regional strengths and climate solutions, innovations and ideas. Good to see the ambition and willingness to collaborate and share knowledge and encouraging to see the increased numbers of delegates and extended 2 day agenda. Well done Jess Cook and team at Net Zero North East England it was an incredible achievement. However, at SmartCarbon we would of course ask, what is the impact? We all know there really is only one measurement that really matters if the NE Region is to play its part in addressing the escalating climate crisis, and achieve its Net Zero ambition, and that is the carbon that reaches the atmosphere. Are these initiatives resulting in the required urgent deep cuts in emissions? It would be good to see more clarity on the annual regional tCO2e emissions and progress against targets, within the region's carbon budget for 1.5 degrees. This is critical to underpin discussions around mitigation, adaptation and offsets (carbon markets). At SmartCarbon we were pleased to provide our expertise to measure the impact of the event, and to talk to clients old and new, about organisational performance, Carbon Reduction Targets and Plans, but we do love to see the numbers and would welcome increased measurement and transparency of regional performance, and most importantly, evidence of reduced emissions, whilst also being mindful of supply chain impacts as a consequence of local consumption. #NZNEESummit24 #NetZeroNE #CleanerGreenerFairer

Pleased to support suppliers to Newcastle Hospitals with this webinar on carbon targets, reporting and reduction, to meet procurement requirements. Learn more about the free tools and resources available to suppliers.
