Baseline Emissions Footprint

Baseline emissions are a record of the greenhouse gases that have been produced in the past and were produced prior to the introduction of any strategies to reduce emissions. Baseline emissions are the reference point against which emissions reduction can be measured. We have not previously assessed or reported emissions.
 
Baseline Year: We have not previously assessed or reported emissions.

Emissions reduction targets

In order to continue our progress to achieving Net Zero, we have adopted the following carbon reduction targets.

We project that carbon emissions will decrease over the next five years to 35 tCO2e by 2029. This is a reduction of 18.01%.

 

Carbon Reduction: Projected vs Actual


 

Proposed Carbon Reduction Initiatives

In the future we hope to implement further measures such as:
 
1/ We are engaging with the ISO 14001 certification and hope to achieve this accreditation as soon as possible.
2/ We intend to have our electricity supplied entirely by on-site solar panels.
3/ We are intending to engage with environmental partners to offset our carbon emissions through the planting of trees, the restoration of wetlands and other natural habitats thereby also encouraging biodiversity.
4/ To improve our recycling rates by sorting the waste in house and separating it into
different categories. We hope that this will allow us to offer a recycling service for used birth
pool liners and hoses.
5/ Investigate the feasibility of buying more recycled stationery and packaging.
6/ Encourage staff to move over to electric vehicles (installing charge points) and encourage more active commuting methods (cycling/walking)
7/ As of 2024, we are moving into a newly built, modern warehouse and offices and we project that this will reduce our carbon emissions significantly.
