Our take
The world has never been more connected, with unprecedented access to goods, services, and travel. But this has had a severe impact on the environment, with an increasingly pressing need to reduce harmful emissions to tackle the climate crisis.
Zevero is helping with this by creating tools that organizations and businesses can use to get closer to net-zero. This comes at a time when there is more and more scrutiny on companies to indicate their ESG credentials.
Its service allows clients to monitor tangibly their environmental impact so that they can take actionable insights to reduce their carbon footprints. With this approach, Zevero is ensuring full visibility into businesses' impact on the environment and empowering them to take full responsibility.
In this way, Zevero aims to create a more prosperous and environmentally friendly future for everyone, ensuring that growth, innovation, and benefiting the planet are not mutually exclusive.
