Measuring your carbon footprint – this has become the standard gauge of environmental impact and needs calculating first. Using your raw data our experts will prepare an accurate report on the energy usage of your business and your staff, discuss how to reduce it, and show you the practical detail of tracking it online.

We will monitor your progress – ICCP members pledge to reduce their carbon emissions by a minimum of 2.5% every year. We chart everyone’s progress through a carbon monitoring exercise and report the partnership’s emissions annually.

We will showcase your achievement – we celebrate our members’ progress through case studies, speaking opportunities, press releases, awards and sponsorship opportunities. Click here to see the improvements some businesses have made

We will offer you discounts and special offers – exclusive discounts drive costs down further and provide an opportunity for businesses like yours to promote your services to potential new clients.

We will help you show your clear commitment – these days it isn’t always enough to have an environmentally-friendly policy, potential clients or local authorities offering contracts are impressed to see you are taking real action but often require environmental accreditation as proof of a company’s corporate social responsibility.
