Innovative Approaches to Sustainability

Comprehensive tools to enrich sustainability and create value
Combine the latest sustainability protocols, frameworks, standards, and industry metrics into a sustainability program to hold data, benchmark corporate performance, answer customer inquiries, manage risk, develop goals, and track progress.

Effectively assess and manage emissions
Outline your Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions so that you can understand climate risk, answer your CDP questionnaire, and set a Science-Based Target.

Directly assess, monitor, and improve risks
While animal agriculture is undergoing increased scrutiny, implementing a video monitoring program will create a learning environment to improve outcomes around animal care. It can also drive better worker safety and improve on-farm culture.

Online educational training for agriculture worker
K·Coe’s virtual learning program, Cultivate, allows agribusinesses to train, test, and track employees on information relevant to daily activities on the farm.  Agriculture courses range from the areas of equipment safety, manure storage, and animal well-being, to worker health and safety, dairy, and egg production.

Develop sustainability initiatives through detailed value quantification
Analyze business impacts and customer, investor, and supply chain stakeholder priorities to develop a roadmap for your sustainability strategy.

Identify resource productivity objectives
Leverage your GHG inventory to calculate a greenhouse gas emissions baseline, model potential goals, and set a target for approval by the Science-Based Targets initiative.

Implement ways to improve compliance
Engage with Averum Certifications (coming soon) to certify your business to ISO quality standards, like ISO 14001 for Environmental Management Systems. Averum Certifications can also accredit your conformance to product labelling, food safety, and specialty programs.

Proactive examination
Prepare your business for certifications and audits by engaging our professional consultants to review your current performance with certification requirements. Audit preparedness saves money, time, and wasted effort to help ensure an organization’s hard work does not go unnoticed.

Verified ESG to help prioritize and refine sustainability strategy and improve financial returns
Take your sustainability performance to the next level by having your Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) practices audited and verified. Enhance your current reporting and strengthen internal control over operations, by increasing the precision of estimates, and delivering repeatable and accurate outcomes.

Meet validation requirements through our CARB-approved third-party assessment
K·Coe’s accredited verifiers help companies demonstrate conformance to the California Air Resources Board’s (CARB) Low Carbon Fuel Standard (LCFS) by performing verifications of quarterly and annual transactions, or providing readiness reviews and gap analysis between current performance and what’s required by the regulation.

Calculations to identify improvement areas that can increase
market share and improve margins
Calculate baselines, model potential goals, set targets, and plan your course of action to meet the needs of your key customers, investors, and supply chain stakeholders.

Capture special credit opportunities for agriculture
As members of the Ecosystem Service Market Consortium and long-term carbon policy experts, K·Coe consultants can help you understand and capitalize on your carbon credit potential.

Employ a program that captures your valuable data
