InterPraxis Assures Data for Vancity’s “Carbon-Neutral” Claim.
InterPraxis assured the energy, transportation and other CO2 data for the first North American financial institution to assert ‘carbon neutrality’ based on the protocols of ISO 14064 and the Green House Gas Protocols of the World Resource Institute (WRI) and the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD). Vancity has raised the bar on the carbon neutral claim by not only accounting for its direct and indirect energy use, but also including the carbon emitted by business-related air travel and by its employees’ commuting to work everyday. InterPraxis’ contribution to this initiative were further by recognized by prominent environmentalist David Suzuki of the David Suzuki Foundation.
