To support companies on their way to decarbonized business, we provide consulting services and develop specialised software.

Working at atmosfair
As a non-profit limited liability company in one of the richest countries in the world with a variety of technical solutions and knowledge, with access to largely free higher education, we are privileged. This goes hand in hand with an obligation towards our donors and other financial backers, but above all towards the people in the global south, for whom this does not apply, who have caused much less climate change than we have, and yet are already feeling it existentially in many cases. Working at atmosfair also means being aware of this privilege and mission, and aligning your own goals and direction in your work with it.
