Climate Sense

Enabling the right action at the right time in a changing carbon economy and climate

Organisations are being challenged to both identify risks and to respond to a future with a very different climate and carbon economy. They need to deliver desirable and cost-effective products and services whilst minimising negative impacts on the environment and managing any negative impacts of the environment upon them. Each challenge is unique, as is the capacity of each organisation to address them.

There is a growing wealth of data, information and technology that identify risk and options for addressing long term challenges. Turning those options into action is proving to be a significant challenge for most organisations and their wider networks.

It is this challenge that Climate Sense serves; we help identify and enable the right actions at the right time.
