Building Your Green Business Networks

Like many, you may find the process of implementing a sustainable business strategy a completely new challenge from business as usual. There is much uncertainty for business as it responds to the challenges and opportunities of climate change: legislation, technologies and solutions are constantly evolving and finding the right partners, suppliers and customers is no longer straight forward.

Sustainable business strategies require fresh combinations of new technologies and stakeholders working together to form different networks and supply chains.

At 2degrees we call these networks green business networks and our mission is to help our members build these, thereby giving them both the knowledge and contacts to drive forward their sustainable business strategy.

dcarbon8      Planet Positive
   
A product, person or business is Planet Positive if it has measured and verified a net positive impact on the planet, its ecosystems, and its people.

dcarbon8 Ltd is an environmental and carbon solutions company established to help businesses reduce GHG emissions and stimulate responsible carbon management throughout the supply chain.

dcarbon8 has created a unique system that enables businesses to collect carbon credits from their supply chains and transfer them to their valued customers and eventually to the end consumer. This acts as a catalyst for corporations to work collaboratively; to build knowledge and influence on carbon matters, and stimulate business and customer loyalty. This process also creates real reductions in the release of GHGs into the atmosphere.

dcarbon8 has developed Planet PositiveTM, a new mark of certification to global best practice standards in consultation with our consulting partner, Environmental Resources Management (ERM) and our 3rd party assurance providers KPMG.

Our delegates will be pleased to meet you at the conference.

Green500
   
The Green500 is in support of the Mayor of London's Climate Change Action Plan, which aims to reduce carbon emissions in the capital by 60% by 2025.

The goal of the programme is to encourage, acknowledge and reward CO2 saving activities in London.

The Green500 aims to help the capital's highest profile organizations reduce London's tangible CO2 emissions. Founding signatories are Marks & Spencer, IKEA, Chelsea Football Club, EDF Energy, The John Lewis Partnership, Eversheds, Guy's and St Thomas' Hospital, Transport for London, Sky, T-Mobile, Ernst & Young and Barrows.

Organizations that sign up to the scheme will benefit from a full audit of their current carbon usage, mentoring and advice on how to reduce their emissions, exclusive access to an accredited suppliers list and will be publicly recognized for their efforts through an annual certification awarded by the Mayor of London.

The scheme aims to set a global standard of environmental excellence - with support from the Mayor of London, Green500 will be promoted as best practice for other cities in Europe and across the world.
