A new partnership to help organizations measure, manage, and report on their sustainability practices.
Bethesda, MD, March 19, 2024 – As the demand for sustainability reporting and accountability grows, organizations need reliable and efficient tools to track and communicate their progress. In order to meet this critical need, GRF CPAs & Advisors has partnered with Sustain.Life, a comprehensive sustainability software platform that simplifies carbon accounting and ESG reporting.
Sustain.Life is a cloud-based solution that enables organizations to measure, manage, and report on their greenhouse gas emissions, energy consumption, water usage, waste generation, and other sustainability indicators.
