Our streamlined carbon assessment and expert support make it easy to capture the data you need to measure an accurate footprint.
Your Seedling adviser is there to handle tricky datasets, plug any gaps, and work with you to improve accuracy year-on-year.
Tools like our employee survey help engage your team on your journey to decarbonise.
With Seedling, your GHG inventory aligns with key principles:
Now you have a detailed picture of your carbon footprint, it's time to work on your targets and how to achieve them.
First, use our SBTi-aligned Net Zero targeting tool to set ambitious emission reduction targets. There are options to set targets on an absolute basis, or use intensity metrics like "t CO2e per employee" or "per £/$m revenue".
With the target set, we'll help you to build a practica plan to achieve it. Using our decarbonisation modelling tools, our experts will analyse your hotspots, spot opportunities for reduction, and map scenarios that align to your targets.

With the Seedling platform, reporting couldn't be easier.
Your emissions data, targets and decarbonisation action plan all pull through automatically to populate your impact page. This also includes formal reports (generated in a click) as well as information about any offsetting projects you have invested in.
Simply share a link (or add to your website) to easily report your Net Zero Roadmap to clients, investors and any other stakeholders that want to see it.

Your questions answered
A Net Zero target roadmap is a structured plan that sets out how your business will reduce its greenhouse gas emissions over time, working toward a state where the emissions you produce are balanced by those you remove. You need one because clients, regulators, and frameworks like B Corp and PPN 006 increasingly require evidence of a credible, data-backed decarbonisation strategy - not just a commitment, but a plan showing how you'll get there.
Seedling's target-setting tool aligns with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) Net Zero framework. A dedicated Seedling adviser helps you understand the different types of commitment (absolute vs. intensity-based, interim vs. long-term) and set a target that fits your business. This is backed by your full-scope carbon footprint data, so your targets are grounded in real numbers rather than guesswork.
Your roadmap is built around a hotspot analysis of your carbon footprint, identifying where emissions are highest and where reductions will have the most impact. From there, Seedling's decarbonisation modelling software lets you quantify the effect of planned changes, while expert advisers provide bespoke, sector-specific recommendations. The result is a practical plan you can use for everything from B Corp Climate Transition Plans to Carbon Reduction Plans for public sector bids.
Yes. Under PPN 006, government buyers can require a compliant Carbon Reduction Plan as a pass/fail condition for major contracts, and the NHS is tightening its requirements further. Seedling's platform automatically generates reports in the compliant formats you need, covering SECR, PPN 006, B Corp, and customer-specific requests, so one source of truth powers multiple outputs.
Seedling's dashboard lets you monitor emissions year on year against the targets you've set. You can track intensity metrics, benchmark against your sector, and see how specific reduction initiatives are performing. Your progress is also shareable via Seedling's Climate Impact page, a branded, public-facing summary of your verified emissions data, targets, and decarbonisation efforts that you can embed on your website or include in bids.
