The entire experience was user-friendly and stress-free. We are now more aware of our environmental impact and feel empowered to make positive changes. We highly recommend anyone looking to understand and reduce their carbon footprint to go through this simple and effective process with Seedling."

"It's so nice to speak with someone who clearly knows what they’re talking about when it comes to footprinting. I’m so much happier working with a company like that, than a faceless SaaS product that offers no relationship."

"We needed to report carbon data and a decarbonisation plan to our client, Microsoft. We needed the output to be high quality and credible, but didn’t have loads of time to dedicate to measuring emissions. Seedling’s software plus support model meant the process wasn’t too time intensive for us as a busy team. The fact that our calculations were checked by Seedling us confidence in the output."

“As a start-up, I found it really hard to find a carbon accounting solution to suit. Along came Seedling. From the start, I was impressed by their approach and knowledge, and the intuitiveness and agility of the Seedling platform. They’re always happy to respond to my endless questions and work to find a solution, for example helping quantify the carbon impact of our payments product.”

"We spoke to a few emission tracking partners before we spoke with Seedling, and Seedling's offer seemed too good to be true but it wasn't! Super straight forward platform, able to get face to face advice when we needed it, not expensive. Would definitely recommend."

FAQs

Your questions answered

What is carbon accounting software?

Carbon accounting software helps businesses track, measure, and report their greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. It automates data collection, calculates emissions across Scopes 1, 2, and 3, and provides tools for compliance and sustainability planning.

How do you do carbon accounting?

Carbon accounting involves gathering data on energy use, transportation, waste, and supply chain activities. Using emission factors, you calculate GHG emissions in CO₂-equivalents, typically broken down into direct (Scope 1), indirect (Scope 2), and value chain (Scope 3) emissions.

Is carbon accounting mandatory?

It depends on where you're based, and the size / profile of your business. For example, Carbon accounting is mandatory for large UK companies under the Streamlined Energy and Carbon Reporting (SECR) framework. Businesses meeting size thresholds must report their emissions and energy use in annual filings.

In addition, many businesses must report carbon data to clients (e.g. as part of a tender) or to their investors (as part of their portfolio ESG strategy).

How do I choose a carbon accounting software?

Look for software that aligns with your industry, integrates with your data sources, and supports recognised reporting standards (e.g., GHG Protocol). User-friendly interfaces, scalability, and cost-effectiveness are also key considerations. Seedling for example is great for businesses up to 2000 FTEs looking to calculate their carbon footprint using software and expert support.
