About Us
Bristol Carbon and Net-Zero Consultancy with over 12 years experience
Greener Energy Futures was set up in response to the Climate Crisis - “what could be practically done to ‘shift the dial’ on change?”
Our realisation was that one organisation alone can only make so much difference. Our purpose lies in the ability to scale change, through our interactions with others. Thus we create positive ‘tipping points’ or ‘virtuous circles’, whereby our small lever effects much bigger change.
We shift the dial on change in two ways:
By choosing to work with organisations who have significant carbon emissions and who want to reduce them, we see significant reductions in emissions.
By helping train and develop the next generation of climate allies through internships and recruitment.
By June 2023, Greener Energy Futures has helped dozens of organisations to understand, identify and enact carbon reduction plans, totalling over 1000 tonnes of CO₂ saved annually, which is equivalent to that of 100 individuals per year.
In addition to this, we have also helped 13 young people develop their skills in carbon reduction supporting a new generation of climate champions.
