3Fish
3Fish has been born out of a
desire to create a commercially successful company, leveraging (but not
replicating) previous experience in a manner that "does the right
thing", that is something to be proud of, feel good about and have a
bit of fun with. When our kids ask us about global warming,
environmental degradation, child labour and sweatshops we would like to
say that we did something to make a difference. "We would like to
create a company that other people want to work for and be proud to be
associated with, and presume that we will attract people with a strong
moral compass", says Marty Dillon, Managing Director, 3Fish . The idea of leading industry change appeals to the 3Fish
team; "doing things a bit differently in an industry (particularly from
a supply perspective) that has been doing things in the same way for
many years. 3Fish aims to be
the industry benchmark for ethical sourcing. We want to create an
easily recognisable brand in the market place that represents ethically
sourced merchandise", says Natalie Dillon, Marketing Director, 3Fish .
It is expected that other suppliers will, over time, attempt to say
that "we can do that too". However, as market leader, and sole
specialist in this area 3Fish
aims to offer an unmatchable "authenticity guarantee" supported by an
independent audit trail. Philosophically, and hopefully, over the years
ethical sourcing becomes commonplace in the mass market and so by
having cool, funky design fundamental to the business, 3Fish will continue to provide innovative sourcing concepts to clients.

necessary for companies to show that they have been purchasing
legitimate 'green' products so that they are well placed for any
emerging legislation and the emissions trading scheme.

Art of Espresso
Adrian & Gabrielle Capra of the Art of Espresso Coffee Company
began their journey into coffee through the hospitality industry and a
love of the cafe lifestyle.
Eleven years ago, they opted for a
"tree change" and gave up the city lifestyle to open their dream cafe
in the country. It was either open a cafe or don't make the move as
Adrian could not go without his daily espressos. After many visits to
the country they wanted to introduce the city cafe scene to the country
and thus their quest to change the way coffee is perceived in the
country began.
They quickly gained a reputation for their
coffee, food and service but it was the coffee where they held their
passion. After serving coffee at local country events they decided to
design and build a mobile coffee cart.
Art of Espresso are now proudly NoCO2 certified.

Box n Go
Like you we care for the environment. When you use Box n Go you’ll have
the comfort of knowing our storage and moving services are carbon
neutral.
Box n Go is an accredited carbon neutral business
Global warming is changing the way the world does business. Consumers are demanding low carbon products and services – we are proud that our Company, Box n Go, is certified NoC02.
Our NoC02 certification means that we have measured, reduced and offset our total greenhouse gas impact. The NoC02 certification means we are carbon neutral as we have negated all greenhouse emissions that occur as a consequence of our operation.
As a start-up, we purchase accredited carbon credits to offset the estimated emissions from the first 12 months of our operations. Furthermore, we report to the Carbon Reduction Institute each quarter on all of our directly controllable emissions, including flights, electricity consumption and waste. The emissions from these sources will then be offset each quarter. This is performed through CRI’s online emissions reporting portal.
To cover off on any uncertainties in this approach, we have agreed to have a full carbon audit encompassing the emissions from all purchases made as well as the emissions from staff travel and waste after completing 12 months worth of operations. Through execution of the agreement, Box n Go is liable to cover the shortfall between the amount offset and the amount emitted through the purchase of carbon credits, should the latter amount exceed the former.

Cullen Wines
Cullen Wines
is located in the Margaret River region of Western Australia. The
company has always had a legacy about caring for the environment.
Initially starting in 1971 as a minimal chemical input vineyard, they
then became certified organic and then finally certified biodynamic
with the Biological Farmers Association.
In the
early 1960's
detailed climatic studies of various regions in
Southwestern Australia
revealed that during the winegrowing season, Margaret
River's
climate was similar to that of Bordeaux, particularly
Pomerol.
The conclusion that Margaret River was ideal for
viticulture was
first tested in Wilyabrup in 1966, when Diana and Kevin
Cullen
planted a trial acre of vines. The encouraging results
led to
the couple planting 18 acres of vines on their sheep and
cattle
farm in 1971.
Cullen Wines while remaining family owned has since evolved making
quality wine from biodynamically grown grapes sourced exclusively from
The Cullen Estate Vineyard and Mangan Vineyard.
The philosophy of Cullen Wines is to search for the best quality expression of the vineyard in the wine. The maritime climate, rocky soils, dry farming, and biodynamic practices all help to create individual and diverse winestyles which are unique to Cullen.

eColour - Nature Colour Paints
Since the conception of Nature Cover Products, the environment issues have been the mainstay in our business philosophy. We appear to have arrived on the market place at a time when environmental news is a daily occurrence around the world.
Nature Cover patented products have been in formation for many years, are of the highest quality and durability and are easy to apply. There are no harsh hazardous ingredients in the paints unique formula and the products literally glide on to the surface with ease while tools and equipment wash out in water. Products are odour free, kind to your health, the environment and your pocket.
Nature Cover uses recycled re-refined fossil fuel in its water-based
products - it actually feeds into the surfaces, and is no longer a waste
product, but an invaluable ingredient of unique high quality products
which are decorative as well as preservative.
We are actually helping the preservation of the world in our own small
way - a very positive environmental way.

Envision Medical Imaging
In keeping with our commitment as members of a local community within a global society, our philosophy is “to first, do no harm”.
Medical imaging has a relatively large carbon footprint with all current forms of imaging, including ultrasound, MRI, X-ray, CT, or nuclear, requiring energy to produce the machines and then to create the medical images required to make a diagnosis.
We believe it is our responsibility to cancel any negative environmental impact involved in the production of our work.
ENVISION minimizes carbon emissions using 100% Greenpower, on a background of energy saving lighting, energy conservative fitout materials and by choosing low or no carbon businesses as our preferred suppliers.
We are proud to be fully accredited as a “no carbon” producing company – as far as we know, the first medical imaging company in Australia to have this distinction.
Eureka Funds Management
Adding value is also Eureka’s vision when it comes to the environment.
Eureka has certified NoCO2, or carbon neutral, with the Carbon
Reduction Institute and is now able to offer carbon neutral products
and services.
To earn NOCO2 certification, Eureka underwent a complete carbon footprint analysis with the Carbon Reduction Institute. This included calculating the emissions from electricity usage and staff travel; waste, fuel and flight emissions, as well as all embodied emissions in Eureka's assets and expenses. By investigating ways to lower their carbon footprint, purchasing carbon credits to offset any unavoidable carbon emissions, and undergoing regular emissions monitoring and re-auditing, Eureka can now claim to be a truly carbon neutral company.
Eureka's Vision is to:
Eutility
With our current contracted client expenditure over $2 billion and with
30 years’ experience in telecommunications and electricity cost
management, Eutility is ideally qualified to provide your organisation
with the expertise and contacts to deliver a significant saving to you.
The bottom line is that we can ensure the forward price for your
utilities is the best available for your business – in most cases lower
than you’re currently paying.
The best utility prices are just the first step
Everything we do is geared towards reducing the utility and compliance costs of your business, putting you in control of your utility usage and expenditure. Our success is based solely upon our ability to save you time and money.
As an office based company we have a relatively small impact on the
environment. However, that doesn’t mean we are not looking to minimise
possible impacts our company may have in relation to the environment.
We have implemented an efficient paperless office environment made
possible by continuing investment in software programmes coupled with
scanning of all documents and invoices, negating the need for large
storage areas. We store only electronic copies, and 50% of our
customers’ monthly bills are audited and validated online. We recycle
paper, toner cartridges and other disposables. We now use only 10% of
the paper used two years ago!

Expos2 Australia
At Expos2 we have engineered a Virtual Solution that will revolutionize the way Exhibitions and Events are held around the world and in doing so, dramatically reduce the environmental costs caused by carbon emissions arising from traditional physical events.
It is something we are proud of and it was only natural that we would seek to ensure that our own company was taking appropriate action against climate change, to ensure that Expos2 itself and our products and services were certified as being carbon neutral.
To this end we obtained an expedited certification from the Carbon Reduction Institute as a NoCO2 accredited business. Achieving NoCO2 certification means that our organization is carbon neutral.
Under our agreement, the Carbon Reduction Institute have estimated the footprint that Expos2 Australia will incur from items such as purchase of assets, staff ground travel and the use of third party services. The emissions are estimated by applying benchmarks calculated from the results of audits completed for similar sized clients.
In purchasing any product from Expos2 you will know that it will carry the Carbon Reduction Institutes accreditation as being a Carbon Neutral Product which is something you can also highlight. We are proud to be NoCO2 certified and to make a substantial difference for a better future.

Fulton Francis
Actual Data Upload: Rather than
assuming use patterns on devices Fulton Francis wanted to base all
calculations on actual verifiable data. This is achieved by physically
metering each device for an agreed period. Metering equipment will
capture actual usage patterns and also capture standby periods when
devices are still drawing power. Once the data is captured the upload
function can calculate the results from anywhere in the world.
Save & Export Function: Uploaded data is saved in a central database.
A
comparison can then be made with any future device analysis, so as to
accurately quantify any carbon emission/electricity savings.
The export feature allows all data to be graphed for analysis in the summary report.
In developing these innovations to the standard carbon calculator model, Fulton Francis has shown a commitment to accurately quantifying all costs associated with a company's print infrastructure. Clients can then make informed decisions, based on verifiable data, to optimize their printing infrastructure in order to meet their global sustainability goals.

The Carbon Reduction Institute is proud to partner with Mercure in New Zealand for the first nation-wide carbon neutral meeting offering from a major hotel chain.
The Mercure Meetings offering is specifically designed to measure and offset the greenhouse gas footprint produced by each meeting service. Each Mercure hotel then funds the cost of the offsets and will not pass them on to you.
The Carbon Reduction Institute in conjunction with Mercure calculates the emissions from the following:
- energy used to heat, cool and ventilate the venue
- electricity consumed by lighting and AV equipment used
- emissions embodied in the food and beverage packages supplied for the event
The emissions from these services are calculated based on the running sheet of the event using published life cycle data, an input/output analysis of the New Zealand economy and emission factors provided by industry bodies, universities and the Ministry for the Environment. These emissions are then offset using carbon credits that are certified under the internationally recognised Voluntary Carbon Standard.
Currently the offsets will be funding the ‘Household Energy Efficient Lighting Project’ (HELP), implemented by Energy Mad (a New Zealand based company). With the aim to lessen climate change through economical energy savings, Energy Mad have partnered with electricity networks and retail outlets encouraging consumers to purchase the Ecobulb (Australasia’s highest performance energy saving bulb) at a heavily discounted rate. By installing Ecobulbs to replace incandescent light bulbs, the initiative leads to a direct reduction in fossil fuel electricity generation and reduces consumer’s electricity bills and wastage in our landfills.
What is not included in the emissions calculation is the travel by attendees to get to and from the event as well as any material brought in by the event organisers. The emissions from these sources are often the largest contributor to the total emission of an event, therefore the total event should not be referred to as carbon neutral unless these emissions have been calculated and offset.

Pinter & Partners
At first glance our approach may seem procedural and prescribed; however our usual approach is friendly and informal. We find that the demands on business are often extremely high; however you do not need your adviser to become another problem... unless of course your undivided attention is required.
The way we maintain a relaxed approach is by dealing with the hard questions often, this way complexity becomes the norm and your near disaster will often turn into a welcome coaching session or time out from a demanding schedule.
Our experience may come from a number of areas; formal training, updates, seminars, ad hock research, or even an unrelated client, in all likelihood we are dealing with needs similar to yours right now.... if we haven't come across a new problem we would be delighted to assist.

Positive Impact
Our vision is a world where all products are manufactured with a “cradle to cradle” approach. This means considering the environmental impact at every stage of the product lifecycle, from manufacture to disposal, with the intention to minimise the use of natural resources at every stage.
With technology advancement in recycled and recyclable material there is no reason why we have to choose items made from cheap virgin materials that can only be used once. Collectively this method will significantly reduce the amount of rainforests being destroyed, it can ensure people are treated kindly in their work and ultimately can educate the next generation to do better than we have.

In early 2009, Rubik commissioned the Carbon Reduction Institute to
undertake a complete carbon footprint audit on the business to see what
actions can be taken to reduce the impact Rubik's operations have on
climate change. The audit included emissions from electricity usage,
flights taken by Rubik staff; fuel usage and waste; staff work travel
and staff commuting from and to work; and embodied emissions in Rubik's
assets and expenses items.
Rubik now purchases carbon credits from the Karnataka Renewable Energy
Project
in India to offset their emissions. These carbon carbon offsets are
accredited under the Voluntary Carbon Standard and have been
third-party audited by DNV. The Project has been registered under the
United Nations Clean Development Mechanism since 2007. To find out more

Short Back and Sides
Stu Brown, Paul Tenorio, Steve Hudson and Kyle Williams all met while studying at Newcastle Conservatorium, and formed the group in 2001 as a one off, for a proms concert at the con. By popular demand they continued to sing together and in 2002, toured the UK and France with the University of Newcastle Chamber Choir. Since then, they have performed around Newcastle and the Hunter Valley at various weddings, functions and locations including City Hall and the Hunter Valley Gardens.
Short Back and Sides care for the environment and have been certified carbon neutral by the Carbon Reduction Institute (noco2.com.au).
The quartet performed on Australia's Got Talent 2009 and reached the semi finals. Here's what one critic had to say:
“If you thought barbershop quartets were old guys singing vintage tunes, prepare to be amazed. Short Back and Sides wowed judges and crowds alike with their recent appearance on Australia’s Got Talent. This talented foursome gave barbershop a new spin with a soaring rendition of Coldplay’s “Viva La Vida.” Individually these guys all have the vocal chops to impress a capella. But when their voices come together the magic really happens. Who needs a string section when you can harmonize like this?”

Superior Jetties
The Low Carbon Marina Initiative was launched at the Australian Marine Innovation Conference on the Gold Coast. Keynote speaker Senator The Hon Kim Carr, Australian Minister for Innovation, Industry, Science and Research said, "Climate change is pressing to our marine industry. The Low Carbon Marina Initiative to be launched today is one example of how the marina industry is responding to this challenge."
The initiative is part of the Marina Industries Association of Australia (MIAA) vision to be a leader in marina environmental programs. The MIAA has set a goal of a 20% reduction in the operational carbon footprint of Australian marinas by 2015.
MIAA has partnered with the Carbon Reduction Institute to develop and manage the Low Carbon Marina Initiative. The initiative provides a simple certification system to enhance the sustainability of marinas and related businesses. It allows for participation at varying levels of carbon reduction. Participating businesses go through a three step process. Firstly there is an assessment of the carbon footprint; then development of strategies to reduce carbon emissions, and finally the offsetting of unavoidable carbon emissions by purchasing carbon credits.
The Initiative provides marina and related operators with real cost savings and marketing benefits at a time of rapidly growing consumer awareness of the need to act on global warming.
As part of the development and lead up to the launch marinas, in Western Australia, Victoria, New South Wales and Queensland are already participating in the Carbon Marina Initiative. Superior Jetties are participating and MIAA expect over 40 businesses will be involved in the initiative within eight months.

Vigilant Solutions
Vital Plus
Vital Plus owner Frank Sellam immediately took to the concept of the
Low Carbon Spa & Beauty Initiative when he first heard about it.
After an initial phone conversation and proposal, he decided to engage
the Carbon Reduction Institute to undertake a carbon footprint analysis
of his business. Frank recognised that this would give him a
significant competitive advantage over other businesses in the
industry, while allowing him to take appropriate action to reduce his
carbon footprint which he could leverage against well-founded
calculations.
The Carbon Reduction Institute determined that
Frank’s business was responsible for just under 775 tonnes of CO2e last
year. This number was established using internationally recognised
methods and standards, and included emissions from fuel consumption,
electricity; staff commuting, flights; waste and product freight as
well as embodied emissions in products, assets and expenses. By
purchasing carbon credits to offset those unavoidable carbon emissions,
Vital Plus can now say it is truly carbon neutral.
Vital Plus purchase energy efficiency carbon credits from the HELP
project in New Zealand to offset their unavoidable carbon emissions.
The HELP projects distributes energy saving light globes around New
Zealand households, while also assisting in educating consumers about
the importance of reducing their carbon footprint at home. The HELP
credits meet CRI’s stringent assessment criteria for carbon credits and
bring along important other benefits.

William Roberts
We have begun the challenging task of minimising the impact of human
induced climate change. William Roberts have commissioned an emissions
report from the Carbon Reduction Institute to investigate our impact on
the environment and to determine measures that could be taken to reduce
this impact.
The aim is to reduce greenhouse gases from entering the atmosphere, and we achieve this by purchasing the same number of 'carbon credits' (one credit represents saving one tonne of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere) as our equivalent carbon liability.
Other efforts to reduce our impact include liaising with carbon neutral suppliers and implementing a clause in our supplier engagement agreements that details minimum requirements.
William Roberts' objective was to be carbon neutral by 2010. By developing internal awareness programs and through team commitment, William Roberts is pleased to announce that we are now carbon neutral.

ZILZIE WINES
The fragile relationship between the environment and wine production means climate change will dramatically affect the wine industry. Temperatures in most Australian wine regions are projected to increase up to 1.7°C by 2030 resulting in irreversible changes which wine businesses will need to adapt to. At Zilzie, we have always had a strong environmental ethic, so deciding to eliminate our carbon footprint and promote a wine range as carbon neutral was one more step to show we care about our connection to the land. We also were excited to see the potential benefits from marketing and staff education.
The first step in engaging the Carbon Reduction Institute to make our wine carbon neutral was to undergo a comprehensive carbon audit that quantified the greenhouse gas emissions from the life cycle of the product from cradle to consumer. See our disclosure statement for more details about what this included. An audit report produced by CRI showed the sources and breakdown of emissions. We then purchased carbon credits to offset these emissions and certify the Bulloak range under the NoCO2 certification program.
