New tool unveiled to help drive down employee carbon emissions

A new tool aimed at helping companies to measure, reduce, balance and report on employee carbon emissions both at home and the office has been unveiled.

WeSpire developed the Employee Carbon Management Solution, in partnership with Cox Enterprises and South Pole, which gives access to specific employee Scope 3 carbon emissions data quickly, accurately and on demand.

Through the data, businesses are able to engage their employees to make continual, progressive carbon emission reductions over time through curated actions, based on behavioural science, rather than immediately offsetting.

Susan Hunt Stevens, Founder & CEO, WeSpire said: “We’ve pioneered a data-first, behaviour-change solution to drive much needed personal climate action in the workplace.

“Our technology enables organisations to engage their employees to better understand their own impact, take targeted carbon reduction actions and when needed, the company or employees can balance what remains. This holistic solution will inspire further innovation as employees see their collective impact on their company’s ESG goals and will significantly simplify employee-related Scope 3 emissions reporting.”
