The partnership will enable Forto to track progress against its science-based targets and take concrete action to meet them, the company says.
Cozero’s approach includes numerous up-to-date emission factors – such as building and transport energy use, purchased goods, and services, and server usage – to understand which activities produce the most emissions.
“It is a pleasure to work with a company that has put sustainability at the core of what it does and that has been measuring and managing its greenhouse gas emissions since day one,” said Helen Tacke, founder and CEO of Cozero.
“Together, we will both implement data-driven accounting of emissions and work on achieving Forto’s science-based targets. Forto is leading by example in an industry that dramatically needs to evolve and we look forward to building innovative software solutions that drive decarbonisation across the whole logistics value chain” said Helen Tacke, founder and CEO of Cozero.
