Carbon Footprint
Organisations are continually coming under pressure, from various stakeholders, to disclose the real impact its operations, goods and services have on the environment. Carbon Footprinting has become a necessity for forward thinking companies to protect existing business, enhance your brand and sustainable credentials.
The Climate Change Bill will be transposed into UK law within the next year placing legal requirements on over 5000 UK companies under the Carbon Reduction Commitment, CRC, when calculation of your organisations footprint will shortly become a legal requirement.
A starting point for calculating the footprint of an organisation should be to understand and quantify the key emissions sources which include gas, electricity and transport. This then will focus the organisation on the opportunities for initial cost savings.
Carbon Zones Carbon Management Programme takes organisations through this process step by step, utilising the globally accepted GHG Protocol.
