What most businesses are missing in their carbon footprint (and how to get it right) | Climate Zero

Carbon reporting isn’t just about compliance, it could unlock a huge business opportunity if you get it right.

In this episode, Kiarne Treacy chats with Tai Lennon, Managing Director of Climate Zero, to unpack what actually goes into your carbon footprint, and why most businesses are underestimating it.

From data blind spots and boundary setting to who actually owns emissions inside your business, this conversation breaks down the real work behind carbon reporting, and how to do it well without breaking the bank.

They cover:

  • Spend vs activity-based data (and what your software might be missing)
  • The surprise sources of Scope 3 emissions
  • Why automation won’t cut it
  • How to make this work at any size or budget

If you’re serious about reducing emissions, not just reporting them, this is one episode to listen to.
