What is The Carbon Management Programme?
A step by step technical and change management process to:
• Understand our Carbon Emissions Footprint• Develop a Business Case for change• Develop an ongoing management framework• Provide a methodology for prioritising action• Prepare an implementation plan• Monitor action - Quantify and Publicise benefits• Integrate carbon management into existing business practice• .
Understand Carbon Emissions Footprint
Breakdown of 2002 annual emissions(total emissions = 25,937 tCO2)
Buildings - electricity6,65726%
Buildings - gas9,61537%
Transport9,18735%
Water1941%
Paper2841%
Buildings - electricity Buildings - gas Water Paper Transport

< Typically, most emissions are from buildings, then transport
