Green House Gas Emissions
Progress report
We have taken several measures to reduce our green house gas
emissions since we embarked on our sustainability journey. We are
very pleased that our emissions have reduced again this year.
Scope 1 progress
We have improved plant efficiency 23% over the last two years
which is the most significant contributor to our progress. We have
also reduced our scope 2 emissions by actively increasing the
amount of renewable electricity we purchase despite their being an
increase in the monetary cost to doing this.
Scope 2 progress
We have also reduced our scope 2 emissions by actively increasing
the amount of renewable electricity we purchase despite their
being an increase in the monetary cost to doing this.
However, the current constraints on electricity supply means we
may have to purchase more non-renewable electricity
Scope 3 progress
We continue to work with our supply chain to reduce their
emissions.
A number of suppliers have suffered constraints following the
global energy crunch and we suspect in the short term our Scope
3 emissions will increase.
Carbon offsetting
We have used two different organisations to purchase carbon offset
credits, firstly PlantsAndTrees who are local to our operations
here in Leyland. They have a number of land areas in Sweden and
Canada that contain the forestry related to our certified offsets.
The second organisation is called OffsetFinance and they are also
a registered trading platform but they do not have a complete list
of source countries. They do list Angola and Zimbabwe. We are
reviewing our future relationship with them. [2]
