Offsetting
Our focus at SBS will always be to follow the IEMA GHG Hierarchy and to eliminate, reduce and substitute carbon at every level.
However, where technology, process or finance do not allow for this yet, we have our Nature Positive solutions, provide tax deductible, government verified, carbon offsetting schemes to offset emissions the you cannot yet eliminate.
When we started on our objective to become a more sustainable and responsible business we quickly found ourselves lost and confused and we didn’t know where to turn for genuine support. Then we found Sustainable Business Services and they were a real game changer!
James talked us through the landscape and worked with us on our data collection, tracking, objectives, strategy and targets! We’ve since achieved amazing results that we couldn’t have dreamed about prior to working with SBS! Thanks to James and the Team, you really are making the world a better place!
