Our Mission

The science is clear.
The action must follow.

CLIMATECO2RE was founded on a single conviction — that the gap between climate science and real-world implementation can be closed through rigorous engineering, data, and systems thinking.

We don't offer pledges. We offer pathways — measurable, verifiable, and grounded in the most current IPCC-aligned methodologies.

Who We Are

Practitioners, not
consultants

We don't theorise about the climate transition — we engineer it. Every member of our team has worked on real decarbonisation projects, in real organisations, under real constraints. That experience is what makes the difference between a plan that looks good and one that actually works.

Founded in Paris with offices in Singapore and Nairobi, we operate at the intersection of climate science, financial analysis, and systems engineering — bringing a uniquely multi-disciplinary lens to every engagement.

Our Commitment

We hold ourselves to the
same standards we set for others

CLIMATECO2RE is built on a simple promise: to act responsibly toward the planet and the communities we serve. We have aligned our own operations with the Science Based Targets initiative, setting clear, validated milestones to reduce our footprint — because we believe engineering a better future starts with leading by example.

Our Scope 1 and 2 emissions are committed to a 42% reduction by 2030 and 90% by 2040. We are also targeting a 25% reduction in Scope 3 emissions by 2030, moving toward 90% by 2040.

What Drives Our Work

Principles that shape
every engagement

Our team is united by a shared commitment to doing things the right way. While our tools are technical, our motivation is personal: we want to leave a planet that is stable, healthy, and thriving for everyone.

⚙️
Practicality First

We prioritize sensible, actionable steps that bridge the gap between where a business is today and where it needs to be. No vanity projects, no shelf reports.

🔬
Continuous Learning

The path to 1.5°C is always evolving. We stay curious, constantly refining our methods to stay at the forefront of climate science and engineering practice.

🌍
Shared Responsibility

We take a responsible attitude toward our environment and the communities in which we live and work. The climate crisis is not someone else's problem.

📊
Numbers Over Narratives

Every engagement ends with a verified number, not a compelling story. We believe rigour and honesty are the most important things we bring to any client relationship.

🤝
True Partnership

We work alongside our clients, not above them. We transfer knowledge, build internal capability, and leave every organisation stronger than we found it.

🚫
Zero Greenwashing

We turn down engagements designed to produce PR-friendly outputs without real impact. Our reputation depends entirely on the integrity of what we sign off on.

The Team

Scientists, engineers,
and practitioners

A small, senior team with deep expertise across climate science, carbon markets, digital MRV, and policy — united by a shared belief that rigour and urgency are not opposites.
