Carbon Footprint
For
any
organisation
contemplating
climate
action,
the
starting
point
is
always
the
same:
calculating
your
Carbon
Footprint
.
This
lays
the
foundation
for
a
carbon
management
plan—giving
you
unambiguous
insights
into
your
organisation’s
greenhouse
gas
emissions,
where
carbon
hotspots
lie
within
your
organisation
and
what
targets
and
methodolgies
you
could set and apply to reduce and offset your climate impact.
Climate
Partners
has
the
knowhow
to
accurately
determine
your
organisations
Carbon
Footprint,
consistent
with
the
Greenhouse Gas Protocol and ISO 14064.
Climate
Partners
measures
Scope
1,
2
and
3
carbon
emissions
across
your
organisation
-
providing
a
clear
picture
of
your
emissions,
where
carbon
‘hotspots’
lie,
and
provide
a
base
for
developing
a
plan
to
deal
with
your
emissions
by way of reduction and offset.
•
Scope
1
Emissions
come
about
from
sources
that
are
owned
or
controlled
by
the
company,
for
example,
emissions from combustion in owned or controlled boilers, furnaces, vehicles, etc.
•
Scope 2 Emissions are those emissions attributed to purchased electricity
•
Scope
3
Emissions
cover
a
wide
range
along
a
company’s
entire
value
chain,
including
raw
materials,
logistics,
business
travel
by
the
team,
and
how
your
employees
commute
to
work.
This
category
often
accounts
for
a
large
chunk of your overall corporate carbon footprint
Data is collected for each Scope and expressed in terms of carbon emissions equivalents.
This
enables
Carbon
Footprint
to
be
determined,
froms
a
clear
picture
of
emssions
and
‘hotspots’
to
be
understood,
and provide the basis for future action.
Climate Partners
assesses and guides you through these processes.
