We quantify GHG emissions in geographic spaces (i.e. cities and countries) based on the implementation of international methodologies such as the Global Protocol for Community-Scale Greenhouse Emissions Inventories (GPC) and the guidelines of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) taking into account the following sectors: energy, industrial processes and product use, Agriculture, Forestry and Other Land Uses (AFOLU) and waste.

We develop climate action plans based on the developed baseline information.

We quantify the Water Footprint in geographic spaces (cities, countries) based on the implementation of the methodology promoted by the Water Footprint Network (WFN), a Dutch network that brought together international organizations linked to water and sanitation issues, since 2008.

The information displayed through the water footprint makes it possible to analyze the environmental, social, and economic implications of the use, consumption, and contamination of water.

We develop climate action plans based on the developed baseline information.

We develop specialized studies in city basins, to ensure the availability of water in sufficient quantity and quality in the long term, through the conservation of water sources, efficiency in distribution, demand management and pollution prevention, involving the public and private sectors.

We conduct analysis studies of population growth projections, the increase in the demand for natural resources, the climate change scenarios projected by the IPCC, and other studies recognized at local and/or regional levels that allow us to understand the level of vulnerability of a city in the medium and long term.

We conducted a multi-temporal analysis of orthophoto and cartographic information available for a period of at least 10 historical years, in order to verify changes in vegetation cover and land use, define the rate of deforestation, and create a map of incompatibilities, applying a climate change approach.

We create climate action plans based on the developed baseline information.

We develop climate action plans marking a roadmap that contributes to the process of mainstreaming the climate change agenda in key sectors (transportation, residential, water, waste, industry and commerce), within the framework of the reduction of the Carbon and Water Footprint.

This important instrument is a catalyst to guide the allocation of public and private resources in a more strategic and coordinated way so that the city advances in its transformation towards a low-carbon and resilient development in the face of the impacts of climate change.

The SASA team provides support for reporting on international platforms such as:

Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP)

The CDP, formerly known as the Carbon Disclosure Project, runs a global reporting and information dissemination system that enables companies, cities, states and regions to measure and manage their environmental impacts.

WaterActionHub

The Water Action Hub catalogs and facilitates water management projects in river basins and regions around the world.

Global Compact

The Global Compact is a United Nations-mandated initiative that works towards a more sustainable and inclusive global economy, promoting the implementation of 10 principles universally in the areas of human rights, labor standards, transparency and anti-corruption, and the environment in order to be part of the strategy and operations of companies and to facilitate actions so that companies can work towards the SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals).

The ACA is a global airport carbon management program that independently assesses and recognizes airports' efforts to manage and reduce their CO2 emissions. There are 4 different levels of accreditation: Mapping, Reduction, Optimization, and Neutrality.

C40 cities network

C40 is a network of the world's megacities committed to addressing climate change. C40 supports cities to collaborate effectively, share knowledge and drive meaningful, measurable, and sustainable action on climate change.

The SASA team assists cities in the use of tools developed by C40 such as CIRIS and CURV.

Within the framework of the Carbon Footprint and Water Footprint reduction strategies, we implement pilot-scale demonstration projects that make visible not only the climate impact, but also the social impact of many actions, for example, with the implementation of urban vegetable gardens, a car-sharing platform for public institutions, water decanting systems for mist traps, among others.
