In my previous post, I told you about the fabulous impact on cultural awareness surrounding the carbon count of our atmosphere spawned by the Deutsche Bank Carbon Counter. However, once you have viewed the counter and/or downloaded the widget for your computer’s desktop, how do you take definitive action to reduce your carbon footprint? One of the easiest ways is to green your selection of vendors when purchasing products and services.
Most of us have a choice of at least two vendors when purchasing a product or service. How do we include the company’s environmental sensitivity when choosing between the two? The Climate Counts Company Scorecard makes it easy.
While some vendors are ethical and entirely accurate in reporting their corporate responsibility to environmental issues such as global warming, others employ green washing and other deceptive tactics in order to convince you to choose in their favor. The best way to make an informed decision is to rely on a disinterested party to provide you with all of the facts.
Now, thanks to its handy Company Scorecard, Climate Counts provides you with the information at no charge but with the convenience of your mobile phone. That’s right! All you do is send a text message with the company name preceded by the word green and you will receive the company scorecard by rapid reply. How could the process be any easier?
You’ll find all of the necessary steps (plus a link to Mozes, the initiative partner) on a special page of the Climate Counts website
