How ZeroMe Works

A sustainability & employee engagement platform to streamline your path toward carbon neutrality

ZeroMe connects your workforce to your company sustainability goals and equips every employee with the tools they need to reduce their individual carbon footprints — and at scale, to help lower your employee-related scope 3 emissions.

Carbon Calculator

Employees access ZeroMe individually via desktop or mobile app and answer a few simple questions.

ZeroMe calculates employees’ unique carbon footprints — and breaks them down between work and personal carbon emissions.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the carbon footprint calculator work?

When you onboard with ZeroMe, you’re asked to complete a few questions. Your responses help us calculate your overall carbon footprint. You can also provide more detailed responses under Profile > About Me to generate a more accurate calculation. Without these more detailed responses, our carbon calculator is still able to model your carbon footprint following best-in-class practices by using national, regional, and state-level averages.

What does ZeroMe do with my data?

ZeroMe is committed to protecting your privacy and the personal information you share with us through your use of the ZeroMe app. We only use your data to administer and manage the program, and your data will always be treated anonymously and at the aggregate level. You can read a full version of the ZeroMe Privacy Policy in the app by navigating to your Profile, selecting “edit” next to Settings, and then selecting “Privacy and Terms” from the menu of options.

Why should I lower my carbon footprint?

Here are just a few reasons to reduce your carbon impact on the planet:

Mitigating climate change: Reducing greenhouse gas emissions helps combat rising temperatures and prevents issues like ocean acidification
Improving public health: Lowering emissions reduces air pollution, which lowers the risk of asthma, lung cancer, and food/waterborne diseases
Preserving food and water security: Carbon reduction safeguards food and water supplies, reducing the risk of malnutrition and supporting better access to essential resources
Supporting ecosystems and biodiversity: Decreasing carbon impact helps protect ecosystems, benefiting plant and animal diversity, enhancing food systems, and aiding in the further capture of carbon emissions
What if I need to change my responses to the original carbon footprint calculator questions (for example, I bought a new vehicle or work from home more frequently)?

You can edit your responses at any time in the profile section of ZeroMe.

Why do you calculate personal and work-related emissions separately?

ZeroMe is more than just an individual carbon calculator app. It’s a unique solution that helps employees connect with their company’s sustainability mission. Individual users (employees) understand the role they play in reducing their carbon footprint, while companies (employers) can dive further into employee-related scope 3 emissions, bringing visibility for reporting and informing strategies to reduce scope 3, category 6 and 7 greenhouse gas emissions.
