The leader in carbon footprint tools
for long-term carbon risk reduction.

Count what counts! Why footprinter? 1,000 footprints and counting!

Developing a robust carbon model and a carbon risk assessment for your organization can be an overwhelming and daunting task. The good news is that you do not have to be a carbon expert!

The key is to invest your time developing innovative ways to address hot spots:

  • Count what counts. This is where experience helps. Build on proven carbon emissions datasets linked to reviewed and tested footprint models. Do not re-invent the wheel.
  • Get a baseline quickly. Think days and hours rather than weeks or months.
  • Spend your time and energy on data collection and reduction planning: not on emissions factor research, model building and bug fixing.

Where is the best place to start? How do I start? When should I start?

  • The best time to start is now. Carbon has a learning curve. Get on it.
  • Think broadly about your carbon risk. It encompasses regulatory and brand risks as well as economic and operational risks.
  • Start small. Do not start with the entire organization. Start with an office, your transportation, or a company event. Get started now.
 

Footprinter helps you to visualize your organization in a carbon constrained world.

Footprinter is:

  • Powerful, yet easy to use software for organizations of any size and type.
  • The fastest way to baseline your carbon footprint and identify your critical carbon risks.
  • Secure, easy to deploy, intuitive web-based solution that cuts training time, reduces staffing needs, and minimizes data and analysis errors.

It is likely that your organization is already “playing with” a carbon spreadsheet model. Avoid this temptation:

  • The longer-term limitations of spreadsheets far outweigh the initial perceived benefits. Carbon is complex and you will need a team approach, which does not work well with spreadsheets.
  • Using footprinter can cut your project budget by 50% or more and deliver focused, concrete actions in weeks not months.
  • Don't waste the first 30 days developing a spreadsheet model or installing carbon accounting software. Get started now.
 

Since 1997, Best Foot Forward has completed well over 1,000 footprint analyses helping more than 300 organizations to measure, manage, communicate and reduce their environmental impact.

BFF's experience is embodied in footprinter software:

  • A rigorous, well-established process for footprinting, carbon risk assessment and reduction strategy development.
  • At the forefront of international green house gas standards development and application.
  • Broad experience in sector, process, business and government footprinting – large and small.

Developing a green strategy is not just good global citizenship, it is also good strategy :

  • Those that use resources wisely are going to get ahead and stay ahead.
  • Concepts like Scope 1 and 2 are valuable for government reporting. But remember, in the world of carbon cost and carbon risk, your Scope 3 is some else’s Scope 1. It is important to see the big picture if you want to manage your entire carbon risk exposure effectively.
  • Good plans and successful execution are ultimately built on robust data and solid analysis. Get started now.
