Welcome to our TAKE2 profile page.

We’re committed to tackling climate change. That’s why we’ve made the TAKE2 pledge. Check out the work we’ve been doing to reduce our emissions and our plans for the future.

Make the TAKE2 pledge and join us in helping keep the temperature rise under two degrees.

Our pledge

We are committed to be a leader in climate change action.

Our mission is to drive energy & resource reduction though assisting organisations distinguish between avoidable and unavoidable emissions. We work with clients to reduce both of these two categories from a combination of carbon and energy auditing, carbon neutrality, carbon credits and offsetting, business intelligence and stakeholder engagement.
