Carbon Audit
John Herbert | Director
Your customers determine the positioning of your business and brand, however the increasing social awareness now offers business an golden opportunity to strengthen the perception of your business and your brand.
Consumers seek signposts, a way to differentiate between new products, and also expressed the view that given the chance, they prefer to do business with environmentally smart companies. Opting for a carbon management programme early not gives you the chance to market to those consumers, but also provides opportunities to lower operating costs at the same.
Isn't a carbon audit enough?
A Carbon audit is athough scientific calculation which provides an annual snapshot of the total greenhouse gas impact, including carbon dioxide emission of your business in one metric.
In fact it is more like an bank statement, it only shows a record of the past, and the closing balance (your exact status) thats only accurate for that particular day.
Carbon Management Plan
Clearly a snapshot of your acconuts and carbon emission is useful but not instructive. The largest contributor is often the indirect impact from purchased fuels, including electricity. A smart approach, our approach is comprenhensive.
1) Audit - Kelcrofts'calculate your annual carbon footprint and audits energy consumption.
2) Reduce - based on the analysis, where possible eliminate, reduce, or lower your energy and carbon emissions.
3) Any remaining excess that cannot be practically eliminated could be offse (Offseting means purchasing carbon certificates, purchase enough certifcates to match your excess) and you can claim to be carbon neutral.
Carbon Auditing Standards
Kelcroft has adopted the Hong Kong Carbon Audit
guideline as the standard for all carbon auditing in Hong Kong. This
guideline provides a level playing field for greenhouse gas emission
comparison within Hong Kong only.
Good for Business
Striving for zero carbon is good for business, it lowers both the cost of doing business and environmental impact. Increasingly it is becoming a business requirement, suppliers for international corporations need to declare their carbon impacts as a pre-condition for doing business.
Kelcroft advises, manages, and helps solve the zero carbon problem, lowering your overheads, lowering the environmental impact of your business and leaving you free to focus on your core competency.
