Carbon neutrality accelerates around Australia
More net zero carbon organisations in 2018 – we couldn’t be happier
Pangolin has seen a record number of new National Carbon Offset Standard (NCOS) certifications this year, much of it due to our work with iconic organisations such as the Sydney Opera House. We are especially delighted to certify our first school in Queensland,
Corinda State High School in Brisbane. Corinda is currently the only certified carbon neutral school in Australia. Congratulations Corinda!
NCOS completed
Here are a few organisations that we can list now as they have fully completed the NCOS process (wait for it, more coming soon…).
- Taronga Conservation Society Australia – Taronga Zoo and Taronga Western Plains Zoo
- FleetPlus
- APN Outdoor
- International Lubricant Distributors
Find their stories here on the Federal Government’s website.
Certified NCOS events – it’s also an option
Increasingly we are certifying events. Here are a few in 2018:
- Climate Leadership Conference 2018,
- The Living Future Symposium 2018,
- Cities Power Partnership Summit,
- EIANZ 2018 Annual Conference,
- The Banksia Sustainability Awards – see more below.
Organisations are driving change in Australia
The climate science is clear and indisputable, and while lacking the policies we so desperately hope for, businesses are not waiting around to make change. We see that more and more climate leadership drives commercial success. Be part of it. Talk to us about what your organisation can do.

A new Pangolin website!
This year in spring we launched our new website, a fresh new look for Pangolin. It’s still full of practical, need-to-know content, but better. Check it out – it’s easy to navigate, comprehensive, and written in plain language.
Our thanks to those of you who helped with user testing. Your input was invaluable.
