Climate change is forcing companies of all sizes to rethink the way they do business.. to find ways to sustain growth in a low, rather than high, carbon economy.
KPMG’s Carbon Advisory Group is a dedicated team of over 200 professionals who are currently working with organisations globally to help them operate effectively in the low carbon economy. Based on our vast experience and understanding of the carbon market, we are able to provide the kind of advice and support a business needs, to combat issues arising through climate change. At KPMG we recognise climate change as an economic issue, which like other strategic business concerns, should be addressed at board level in order to maximise the potential business benefit.
To maintain a sustainable business model, and improve operational efficiency while at the same time managing your impact on the environment, it is important to consider four key areas; ‘Strategy’ – planning your approach, ‘Measurement’ – direct and indirect footprint, ‘Manage’ – adaptation and mitigation and ‘Report’ – transparency and accuracy around communication and reporting.
Whichever stage an organisation is at, KPMG can provide the support needed to help make the transition to life in a low carbon economy. KPMG has a strong internal record of environmental management and were proud to be the first in the financial sector to achieve accreditation to ISO: 14001:2004 for all UK offices.
