To amplify its partnership with the UN-backed Race to Zero global campaign, Planet Mark is introducing a suite of Zero Carbon Solutions, designed to demystify the area of net zero carbon emissions and assist businesses in committing to a target and creating an action plan so they are supported at all stages of their net zero journey.
This critical period between 2020 and 2030, the Decade of Action, requires bold and ambitious commitments to tackle the climate crisis, which means shifting to net zero carbon. Net zero measures Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions, reducing Scope 1 and 2 emissions by at least 50% but ideally to zero, and Scope 3 by at least 50%, and balancing any residual Scope 3 emissions using carbon removal schemes only.
The suite of Zero Carbon Solutions includes:
This free three-hour workshop is designed to help businesses feel confident in their first steps towards a net zero commitment. As well as introducing the concept of net zero, the workshop showcases why it is an urgent business priority.
Planet Mark net zero action plan
Available to Planet Mark members, this programme offers business leaders the tools and knowledge to create a credible and robust net zero carbon action plan that is reviewed by its certification team. This is followed up with annual workshops to discuss progress against the action plan encouraging continuous improvements.
ZeroBy30: Planet Mark’s ambitious programme to achieve net zero carbon by 2030
The ZeroBy30 programme goes beyond Planet Mark certification targets. It sets a pathway to absolute carbon reduction goals to reach net zero carbon by 2030 through a transformational action plan. Businesses will be supported by a multi-skilled team, who will develop the full solutions suite and roadmap needed to reduce their Scope 1 and 2 direct emissions to zero carbon (where feasible, and at minimum by 50%), Scope 3 indirect emissions by at least 50%, and corresponding impacts on annual cashflow and carbon.
Amelie Trolle, head of engagement at Planet Mark, says: “No matter what stage a business is at on its net zero journey, from setting a baseline to a target to creating the action plan needed to get there, Planet Mark is here to support the company all the way. We hope that by demystifying net zero and demonstrating how companies can take tangible actions and embark on their own zero carbon journeys, more businesses will join us to create a brighter future for all.”
