Why Net Zero Cloud Matters
Net Zero Cloud (formerly called Salesforce Sustainability Cloud) is a Salesforce product that helps organizations track, analyze, and report their carbon emissions and environmental data to support ESG goals and climate commitments. It provides tools for carbon accounting (Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions), supplier emissions tracking, waste and water management, and regulatory reporting frameworks like GRI, CDP, and SASB.
Net Zero Cloud addresses a growing business need as climate commitments become standard practice and regulatory requirements increase. Traditional carbon accounting often lives in spreadsheets that are hard to maintain and audit; Net Zero Cloud brings the same database-driven, audit-friendly approach that Salesforce uses for customer data to environmental data. The product is part of Salesforce's broader sustainability strategy and integrates with the rest of the Salesforce platform for cross-cutting reporting and workflows.
