“The only companies to survive are the ones that take action and systematically work to achieve net zero”

ESG reporting is not enough – companies need to take impactful action. The action starts with an accurate tool that helps you identify the most dominant sources of your emissions. To reach net zero carbon by 2040, we at Enfuce needed to see our current situation clearly to start eliminating emissions efficiently. To do that, we used our own carbon footprint calculator, My Carbon Action.

My Carbon Action was born out of our desire to harness payment data for the good of the planet. Based on payment transactions, the tool provides insights that help consumers consume and companies run more sustainably. With the insight provided by My Carbon Action, we can now focus our action on the areas that will have the biggest impact, such as sustainable procurement. As a signatory to The Climate Pledge, we are committed to net carbon zero by 2040. Take a closer look at our emissions and action plan in our 2021 report.
