What Environmental Accounting Services does

Environmental Accounting Services (EAS) is a privately held, New Zealand-based professional services consulting firm founded in 2007 that specializes in land sector climate change mitigation, greenhouse gas accounting, and climate disclosure. The firm serves governments, corporations, industry bodies, SMEs, communities, and educational institutions across New Zealand, Australia, the Pacific Islands, Southeast Asia, and parts of Africa, with a particular depth of expertise in agriculture, forestry, and REDD+ (Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation) MRV (Measurement, Reporting and Verification). Its core service offering spans climate disclosure development under TCFD, ISSB, CSRD, NZ CRD, GHG Protocol, and ISO 14064; agricultural supply chain Scope 3 emissions reporting; science-based target setting including Forest, Land and Agriculture SBTs; voluntary carbon market project development and verification; capacity building and training; policy development; and catchment-level environmental monitoring.

EAS's technical backbone is built on deep, standards-led consulting expertise rather than proprietary software. The firm codesigned the GFOI Methods and Guidance Document, built the REDDcompass platform, and has produced the Carbon EDGE training manual for Meat and Livestock Australia. Its distribution mix is primarily direct consulting engagement with government and enterprise clients, supplemented by workshop-based training, advisory to multilateral institutions including the World Bank Forest Carbon Partnership Facility, and limited self-serve tools such as support for the Ruminati online agricultural emissions calculator. The commercial model is project-based professional services with revenue generated from consulting engagements, capacity building programs, and training delivery; pricing is not publicly disclosed and is likely quote-based, varying by project scope and client.

The firm is small, with approximately 7 employees, and is founder-led by Director Dr Carly Green, supported by Senior Technical Consultant Dr Felicity Thomas. Notable clients and partners include Moana New Zealand, Deer Industry NZ, Ruminati, Ski Areas Association of New Zealand, The Nature Conservancy, Meat and Livestock Australia, Pinion Advisory, WAI Wānaka, WAO Wanaka, Infinite Earth, RSM, and the governments of Fiji, Vanuatu, Timor-Leste, and the Philippines. No external funding, parent company, or acquisition activity has been disclosed.
