Carbon accounting allows you to understand your environmental impacts and create management strategies.
Did you know there’s a free carbon accounting tool for venues, festivals, offices, tours and production managers? The tool was designed by Julie’s Bicycle in the UK and has been adapted to utilise Australian emission factors.

The picture above is a peak at our own carbon accounting. It only considers operational emissions, but our embodied product emissions are offset separately through 2 gold standard projects (native tree planting, & Kenyan cook stoves). Also this chart doesn’t factor in that we use 100% green power, or that we offset our operational emissions. But the end result is that we are carbon negative! Need to work on our travel emissions though.
