ClimateWise Benefits
Overcoming sustainability obstacles
Unfortunately, many in business and other organizations find the prospect of carrying out carbon measuring and reporting to be a rather daunting task. The cost of a premium carbon accounting program can seem prohibitive and the learning-curve and expense of hiring consultants beyond their means. ClimateWise Business Network was created to overcome these obstacles and get your business up and running quickly and efficiently in setting and achieving your emissions reduction target.
Local business network with Ontario wide partners
When you join ClimateWise you become part of a local network of like minded businesses, which is part of a larger network of Ontario wide businesses, and as a group we are at the forefront of a much larger worldwide movement towards emission reductions, business sustainability, cost-saving efficiency, and improved profitability.
Premium tools
As part of our ongoing commitment to provide comprehensive sustainability support and enhance member benefits, CBN members now have access to Carbonhound, an intuitive web-based carbon accounting platform that streamlines the measurement and management of greenhouse gas emissions. Replacing the former ClimateWise offering, Carbonhound automates data collection, integrates with thousands of primary sources, and delivers high-credibility climate reports, reducing traditional carbon accounting timelines by up to 70%.
With Carbonhound, organizations can easily track and manage their emissions, meet regulatory requirements, and address stakeholder expectations, all while identifying opportunities for cost savings, efficiency, and innovation that drive long-term business resilience. This new addition makes climate action more accessible, impactful, and a key part of your organization’s leadership in championing environmental sustainability.
Through Green Economy Canada’s partnership with Carbonhound, this powerful platform is now available to Green Economy Hubs, including the ClimateWise Business Network, making GHG tracking easier than ever. See Green Economy Canada's announcement to learn more about Carbonhound and how it supports your climate goals.
