About Us

The Carbon Concierge engages small, mid-sized and large businesses at prominent environmental and sustainability related conferences, around the country, to engage in climate reduction strategies. The goal is to work with each participant at each conference to engage them in climate reduction strategies in their businesses. We start by suggesting that they sign on to a 60-day Pledge

where members start developing action plans towards emission reduction in their business operations. Once the pledge has been taken the Carbon Concierge provides resources that help companies measure, inventory and reduce their carbon emissions. If additional hands on help is needed the Carbon Concierge can provide recommendation for consultants that will work with your organization to move it toward a climate balance.

 

Additionally, the Carbon Concierge has undertaken a rigorous assessment of offset providers in the voluntary carbon market. This assessment enables us to provide a thorough analysis of a provider to those companies that reach the point where emission reductions goals have been met and the last step is offsetting what a company cannot reduce.

 

We are also starting to work with local businesses and municipalities to establish a framework for internal educational opportunities and support for driving change within the organization.

 

The Carbon Concierge is a project of the Social Venture Network and Bainbridge Graduate Institute.
