When we set out to launch our business, we had just finished our business degrees and were working in promising jobs at successful companies, but we wanted to do more than just create value for shareholders.
We knew business could be a vehicle for massive, positive social and environmental change. After doing our research we realized that there was already a movement of companies that were using their power as businesses to do work that benefited society, without compromising profits - and in fact increasing them. However, it was a fledgeling movement existing in a handful of small companies and the sustainability departments of large organizations.
In a moment of unyielding optimism Circle was born and we have been working on solving environmental challenges using the power of business ever since.
Circle Environmental Solutions is a next-generation sustainability consultancy focused on the promotion and adoption of business-enhancing sustainability strategies.
We have earned the trust of our clients by applying a hands-on approach and co-creating strategy and initiatives with their teams. We emphasize partnership and seek to build capacity inside your organization, fostering independence in your ambition to align environmental objectives with business success.
When you feel the drive to use the power of your business to solve social and environmental problems, the number of options and directions can feel overwhelming. To help you determine the best path forward, we work with you to create a Sustainability Roadmap.
From there, we move into the process of gathering data and calculating your organization's baseline environmental footprint. Using that data we can work with you and your team to develop appropriately achievable and ambitious objectives - for example, climate neutrality. We call this step Setting Measurable Goals. This will result in a resilient strategy that combines actionable steps in the short term with a long-term vision.
Once your goals are in place, we work with you to develop a variety of employee-engaging and public-facing sustainability initiatives. Get your team and community involved and create true change in pursuit of environmental responsibility. When done successfully, these initiatives will help you towards Meeting Your Targets.
Finally, developing and publishing Sustainability Reports & ESG Disclosures is the best way to solidify the public awareness and marketing advantages of your sustainability efforts and progress.
We have specially developed processes, training, and resources that will make each of these essential steps easier and more engaging for all stakeholders. Contact us to learn more.
