As an organization that develops Greenhouse Gas Inventories, it was necessary for us to consider our own Carbon Footprint. As a service organization, our GHG emissions are mainly indirect and fall into Scope 3 as described in the GHG Protocol - Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standard which provides a step-by-step guide for companies to use in quantifying and reporting their GHG emissions.
Using data as recorded in the contracts handled by Biophys Ltd, the total GHG output for Biophys Ltd for the year 1 June 2008 to 31 May 2009 was determined as:
- 23.51 tonne CO2,
- 0 kg N2O, and
- 0 tonne CH4.
This equates to 23.51 tonne CO2e.
The figure is composed of air, rail and passenger car travel. Electricity consumption and waste (mainly paper) could not be estimated.
