CCC’s Carbon Smart program is targeted at the executive level of Canada's service based businesses, such as law, accounting, real estate and engineering firms. It provides clear guidance on how these companies can improve their bottom-line while driving towards carbon neutrality.

CCC’s Carbon Smart program provides a wide range of options. Registered companies can become “Carbon Aware”, “Carbon Smart” or “Carbon Neutral” through greenhouse gas emission education, reduction or by being independently certified as carbon neutral.

Background
Canada’s service based businesses often incur significant expenses from their business operations for the transport of their employees to and from projects or meetings. In addition to these expenses, a proportional amount of greenhouse gases are emitted.

Carbon neutral firms pursuing growth of their triple bottom line (environmental, economic and social) tend to display superior performance… thus sustainability becomes a proxy for enlightened & disciplined management.
