Retail Tenants Calculator

The Ecological Footprint Calculator for Retail Tenants is an interactive tool to allow property managers and retail tenants to measure the Ecological Footprint of a store or shop. The tool builds on work done for office environments and provides a simple way for property owners and managers to simply engage tenants as to what the impact of their activities are.

Knowing the Ecological Footprint of your business activities can help you make decisions that save resources - both the planet's ecological resources and often your own financial resources through increases in operating efficiency.
