The Climate Group works internationally with government and business leaders to advance the smart policies, technologies and finance needed to cut global greenhouse gas emissions. The Group, with operations in Australia, China, India, Europe and North America chose Greenstone’s web-based application, Acco2unt, because of its functional breadth and ease of accessibility from anywhere in the world.  The carbon reporting software provides fast and accurate reports which enables in-depth analysis of energy, business travel, waste and water across all parts of the organisation, while the one-click reports function frees up time for Green Champions in each region to focus on reduction initiatives.

Mark Kenber, CEO of Climate Group explains, “We work internationally with government and business leaders to help cut global emissions and accelerate a clean industrial revolution. It is therefore essential that we are able to provide transparent, fully auditable, robust carbon and energy reports and demonstrate best practice to our members. Greenstone Carbon Management has helped us achieve this in a very quick and cost effective way.”

Matthew de Villiers, CEO of Greenstone Carbon Management says, “We are delighted that The Climate Group has selected Acco2unt and we look forward to sharing our respective strengths to further advance and improve Acco2unt’s capability in enterprise carbon management. Greenstone is developing a particular strength and track record supporting non-governmental organisations and The Climate Group joins our portfolio of NGO clients such as IUCN and WWF”.
