CARBON ACTION is all about encouraging organisations to take action to reduce the energy they use, lower their carbon footprint and save money.
A simple standard, which is easy to understand and compatible with other quality standards and frameworks
CARBON ACTION is a flexible and easy to use standard which helps organisations take steps to reduce their carbon footprint. The indicators outline what you need to achieve but not how to do it, ensuring that each organisation identifies the priorities for carbon reduction which are most appropriate for it and takes action to address these. This ensures that the standard can be adopted by organisations of every size and sector - without exception, if you use energy to deliver your products and services, you can achieve CARBON ACTION.
"The assessment against the Carbon Standard was a positive experience; the independent review of our plans has helped us to identify areas for improvement and to reinforce the need to tackle climate change across the organisation. We were confident that we were heading in the right direction but we were delighted to receive positive feedback on the commitment of our staff to making a real difference. We would encourage others to seek recognition against the standard as a way of demonstrating their commitment to this important issue."
Dave Watson, Principal Environment Officer, Warrington Borough Council
