Who We Are

Alex Hetherington and Nici Palmer met during a climate change conference and began partnering on a variety of environmental sustainability and research projects.

They recognised a necessity for a specific focus on carbon management within the corporate sector. Carbon Calculated was born from this concept and has grown to incorporate clients on a local and international scale.
