YNCU: B Corp certification kept on automated reporting

The Challenge

Your Neighbourhood Credit Union needed greenhouse gas reporting to maintain its B Corp certification, and collecting the data was a tedious, time-consuming process that pulled the team away from its actual sustainability work.

The Solution

Carbonhound automated YNCU’s climate data management: configured once, the platform pulls monthly updates directly from suppliers and utility meters, with reporting by location or business unit.

The Outcome

B Corp — certification maintained with automated emissions reporting

YNCU now automates its annual emissions reporting with confidence and spends the recovered time on impact-reduction initiatives instead of chasing invoices.

We support this client through our partnership with  Sustainable Waterloo Region  (SWR). SWR is social enterprise committed to helping local businesses transition to sustainable systems of energy, mobility and construction to help build a cleaner, more diverse economy, and a more just and equitable community.

“Collecting and organizing the right data for our greenhouse gas emissions reporting is a tedious process that takes valuable time away from the important sustainability work at hand. With Carbonhound, we are able to automate the data management and feel confident in our reports.”

— Steve Baker, Director of Facilities, YNCU
