There are numerous third-party assessments that underscore the pressing need for decarbonization strategies to avoid the worst impact of climate change. Here we cite just a few of those assessments, which compel any organization committed to reducing its climate impact, to take concrete action. Bloomcore is committed to serve as a catalyst, in bridging the gap between technology solution-providers and end-users, for the successful undertaking of decarbonization projects.
