The Australian government's net zero program certifies you as a climate leader – strengthening your reputation while creating new pathways for commercial success.
Climate Active certification is Australia’s government-backed benchmark for carbon neutrality, recognised by environmentally conscious consumers, investors, and regulators as a mark of immediate carbon legitimacy and marketplace credibility. With our expertise as Climate Active consultants, we position your organisation as a genuine net zero champion – helping you turn sustainability into smart business value.
Achieving Climate Active certification proves your business is serious about climate action and decarbonisation. It verifies that you’ve measured your greenhouse gas emissions, reduced them where possible, offset the rest, and transparently reported your progress. That means instant credibility for your environmental and social governance (ESG) and net zero strategies with proven impact you can share proudly.
We help you define your emissions boundary, audit current practices, and map required data. Our consultants highlight gaps in compliance and reporting so you’re ready for next steps.
Using best-practice carbon accounting, we do the math on your greenhouse gas emissions. Our expertise covers all scopes and business categories, so you can be confident that our calculations will be precise.
Next we get our hands dirty digging into practical ways to shrink your carbon footprint – from energy and waste to travel and procurement – so reductions aren’t just theoretical. These targeted actions boost your Carbon Neutral Standard score, lower operating costs, and drive meaningful, measurable improvements for your organisation.
We will help you gather, audit and prepare all the documents you need, plus provide support through the review process, responding to questions and supplying further documentation when requested.
With documentation gathered, we get you set for assessment. Once you’re approved, you’ll have certification in your hands and the trademark rights to shout your climate credentials from the rooftops.
Your Climate Active status needs to be renewed every three years. We keep you ahead of regulatory changes, manage updates, and guide continuous improvement to maintain your edge.
