Testimonials
"The Carbon Calculator initiative was an interesting exercise for us and one we will continue to monitor! We are all electric and we are now looking at changes to subsequently continue to move up the Benchmark. We have started the journey already, switching our office pool cars to electric (from vans) as an example, but there is still room for improvement!"
The Guildhall got an A rating... It is the same score we got on our DEC so proves the calculator programme works.
