A tremendous opportunity to reduce costs, engage your team and build your brand is through taking action and responsibility around your carbon footprint. For many small and mid-sized businesses, measuring your carbon footprint is easier than you think.
In partnership with GreenStep, TOTA will be hosting two carbon training workshops in March to outline the key steps to measure the carbon footprint of your business, and then uncover opportunities to both reduce emissions and save money. These workshops will be highly interactive, engaging, and leave you with actionable steps. The two sessions build on each other, as outlined below.
1st session - Thursday, March 4 - 10:00 to 11:30 AM
Open to all TOTA stakeholders and there is no cost to attend
Overview of the Carbon Challenge and how to select emissions sources that apply to your organization
Identifying data you need to collect and how to collect it
Brief intro to EcoBase carbon software
2nd session - Thursday, March 25 - 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM
Requires a subscription for EcoBase carbon software (included with the Biosphere Commitment Program or available for purchase through GreenStep).
