Guided Support will assist you with preparing your carbon inventory in the BEE with the help of a trained volunteer Carbon Management Coach to answer questions along the way. The Change Climate Project offers three guided support cycles each year. Participating in a cycle means that you will receive support to complete your recent emissions year carbon inventory and discuss emission reduction opportunities within the prescribed time frame.
The goal of Guided Support is to ensure that your carbon inventory is completed in alignment with the Greenhouse Gas Protocol and ready for regulatory reporting, sustainability reports, buyer reporting, for use by consultants, or to apply for Climate Neutral Certification if you choose.
All brands participating in a Guided Support cycle attend a series of 1:1 touchpoints with a Carbon Management Coach throughout the cycle and optionally* may attend group work workshops and webinars.
Led by your assigned Carbon Management Coach. Your Coach will reach out to schedule these calls.
