Sustainability operationalized
CityTurtles is a behaviour-led sustainability operations platform
CityTurtles
CityTurtles is a behaviour-led sustainability operations platform that helps institutions and organisations convert everyday human behaviour into verified climate outcomes. While sustainability frameworks, policies, and disclosures exist across the world, behaviour remains the missing layer. CityTurtles fills this gap by making daily actions measurable, verifiable, and reportable—turning intent into evidence.
Vision
To make sustainable behaviour measurable infrastructure, not a voluntary gesture so cities, institutions, and corporates can reduce emissions at source and report climate impact with confidence.
Mission
To operationalise sustainability by:
- Measuring daily mobility behaviour
- Converting it into verified climate outcomes
- Aligning results with UN SDGs, ESG, and BRSR
- Rewarding reduction, not declarations
BCRS – Behavioural Climate Reward System
BCRS functions as the verification and reward backbone of the CityTurtles platform.
At the core of CityTurtles is BCRS, a patent-pending system that:
- Verifies sustainable behaviour
- Quantifies emissions reduction at source
- Creates audit-ready climate data
- Enables incentives and recognition without greenwashing
BCRS transforms sustainability from policy-driven compliance into behaviour-driven performance.
Urban congestion, pollution, and emissions are the result of millions of daily choices. Yet, no system existed to measure, verify, and reward better choices at scale. CityTurtles is built to become that missing system—where behaviour is treated as infrastructure and climate action becomes operational.

Who It’s For

The 90-day pilot produces verified datasets, engagement insights, and ESG/BRSR/SDG -aligned outputs.
How CityTurtles Operationalises Sustainability
From Daily Behaviour to Verified Climate Outcomes
CityTurtles operationalises sustainability by transforming everyday mobility behaviour into verified, mitigation-led climate outcomes. The platform captures daily low-carbon commuting behaviour—such as cycling, walking, and sustainable transport choices—and verifies this behaviour through BCRS™ (Behavioural Climate Reward System).
Once verified, emissions reduction is quantified at source, ensuring that impact is measured through real mitigation rather than offsets or assumptions. This verified data is then structured into audit-ready datasets, designed to meet the requirements of ESG disclosures, BRSR reporting, and UN Sustainable Development Goals.
By creating a continuous, behaviour-led measurement loop, CityTurtles enables organisations, institutions, and cities to move beyond sustainability intent and declarations toward operational, evidence-based climate performance. The result is reliable data, credible reporting, and measurable impact—built on everyday human behaviour.
