Taking action is not only an environmental responsibility. It is a sound business decision.

Mission

Climate action should be clear, credible and achievable

Climate change is no longer a distant risk. Organisations that act now reduce risk, strengthen reputation, prepare for changing disclosure expectations and demonstrate leadership.

CRI provides straightforward, cost-effective and robust carbon management services — underpinned by the NoCO2 Net Zero Standard, a consistent and replicable framework for genuine climate action.

Our Approach

Not vague ambition. Structured action.

Climate action falters when it lacks structure. We help organisations move past pledges and purpose statements toward documented, defensible action.

Every engagement is grounded in measurement, evidence and a reduction-first pathway — so claims hold up under scrutiny and decisions stand the test of disclosure.

Measure emissions with clarity, consistency and purpose. Complete greenhouse gas inventories across operations, supply chains, products and services.

Decarbonisation Strategies

Turn emissions data into practical reduction action — pathways, transition planning and action plans that move organisations from ambition to measurable reductions.

Mandatory Climate Reporting

Prepare for AASB S2 disclosure with stronger data, clearer transition planning and a defensible audit trail.

Supplier Specific Emissions Factors

Develop supplier-specific emissions factors to improve Scope 3 data quality and support more accurate supply-chain reporting.

Local Governments Initiative

A fixed-price implementation package helping councils measure emissions, plan asset transition and prepare disclosure-ready reporting.

Assurance and Endorsements

Support for credible, evidence-backed climate claims — preparing evidence, documentation and disclosure for assurance pathways.

The Net Zero Standard

Underpinned by a Standard built for genuine climate action

The NoCO2 Net Zero Standard is an open-source framework that provides a consistent pathway from climate ambition to a credible, evidence-backed net zero claim.

It combines greenhouse gas accounting, reduction planning and transparent reporting — designed to align with mandatory disclosure regimes and stand up to third-party assurance.
