Climate change impacts increase the risk of disruption to businesses. Our team of consultants, with decades of experience across diverse sectors can help you protect your business or organisation against climate change impacts. As part of forming a Climate Change Adaptation Plan, we will undertake a Climate Change Risk Assessment for your organisation. We also can produce a tailored Carbon Net Zero Feasibility Study- a report that highlights the elements of your business that can be changed to reduce emissions. This study can help improve business resilience and identify opportunities to improve efficiency within your business.
Climate Change Adaptation Plan and Risk Assessments
What is a climate change adaptation plan?
Climate change impacts increase the risk of disruption to businesses. According to the UK Climate Change Risk Assessment, the UK is projected to see an increase in the frequency and intensity of weather-related hazards including heat waves and flooding.
An adaptation plan outlines the methods through which we can respond to the current and future impacts of climate change.
What are the benefits of a climate change adaptation plan?
- Proactive management of climate risk
- Cost and time savings through identifying and addressing vulnerabilities
- Embeds climate resilience across your systems and processes
- Compliance with environmental installation permits minimise your impact on the environment during an extreme weather event and the event’s impact on your operations, either through accidental release or abnormal operation
- Improve your resilience and business continuity by avoiding unplanned start-ups, shutdowns and other business interruptions
What can you expect from a climate change adaptation plan?
As part of forming a climate change adaptation plan, we undertake a Climate Change Risk Assessment.
An adaptation strategy and its subsequent risk assessment will deliver a climate change response which appropriately safeguards the wellbeing of individuals and the sustainability of a company, ensuring that you are best positioned to cope with future stresses.
Vulnerabilities in infrastructure can leave your business open to disruptions, which may affect those further along the supply chain, consumers, and your local community. A climate change adaptation plan designed by our experts can mitigate this and yield new business opportunities or savings due to improved process efficiency.
Carbon Net Zero Feasibility Study
What is a Carbon Net Zero Feasibility Study?
A Carbon Net Zero Feasibility Study is a report that highlights the elements of your business that can be changed to reduce emissions. If, after evaluation, it is not feasible to reduce certain emissions, we can advise on certified offsetting options.
Since April 2019, large UK companies have been required to report publicly on their UK energy use and carbon emissions, but it is highly probable that soon smaller companies will also be under legal obligation to record emissions.
A Carbon Net Zero Feasibility Study helps you to understand in detail areas for improvement and where efficiencies can be made, resulting in cost-saving opportunities and a better understanding of your operations.
We are dedicated to helping you function as closely to net zero as possible and can check that any offsetting options have the correct certification. You can be assured that your offsetting decisions are making the most impact in an increasingly complex market.
What are the benefits of a Carbon Net Zero Feasibility Study?
- Cost-saving
- Holistic offering – our consultants have experience across all sectors and industries and can draw on the expertise of cross-disciplinary experts
- Gain deeper understanding of the impacts of your business operations
- Confidently meet increasingly rigorous supplier requirements
What can you expect from a Carbon Net Zero Feasibility Study?
- A tailored report for your business instructing on how to successfully reduce emissions including offsetting options where carbon cannot be reduced due to the nature of your activities
- A breakdown of your scope 1, 2 and if applicable 3 emissions
- Consultancy support from a dedicated team
