Carbon Accounting Specialist (Food & Agriculture)

<div><b>Empowering enterprises to keep the planet habitable for all!</b></div><div><br></div><div>Reversing the impact of climate change is one of the world’s biggest challenges. And businesses have a responsibility to lead the way. While individual consumer choices are important, over 80% of all the emissions reductions necessary for the world to reach Net-Zero, require business-level action. But despite the growing momentum and ambition from companies around the world to set Net-Zero goals, there are significant challenges to delivering on these ambitions. Business leaders don’t really know how they will get there. And the very first step, of getting emissions measurement right, is hard.</div><div><br></div><div>Terrascope is an enterprise-grade, end-to-end decarbonisation SaaS platform.
