1 Preparing for the ‘Carbon Tax Trip’ ahead GIBS/Champions of the Environment Foundation Alex Hetherington - February 26, 2013

2 Agenda 1.About Carbon Calculated 2.Goals of a carbon footprint 3.Types of carbon emissions 4.Key points of carbon profile 5.The Roads ahead – carbon scenarios 6.Carbon emission examples

3 Measurement and strategy Cost-effective solution Trained in GHG Protocol (WRI & WBCSD) - Organisational (annual) - One-off Project - Verification - Real-time Carbon Calculated

4 Why a carbon footprint? Greenhouse Gases (GHGs)…more than just carbon dioxide (CO 2 )… … SF 6 … CH 4 … N 2 O… HFCs… PFCs GOAL of a carbon footprint is to capture as many DIRECT & INDIRECT GHG emissions from an organisation or product. You can’t manage what you don’t measure!

5 Emission scopes Purposefully confusing, but does prevent double-counting! Compulsory vs. voluntary

6 Key components of CO 2 profile Underlying information 1. Sustainability data 2. Carbon footprint 3. Financial monitoring

7 The road ahead

8 CO2 Management Scenario 1 DRIVING BLIND  No measurement  No management  No cost control UNPREPARED

9 CO2 Management Scenario 2 MYOPIC (‘tunnel vision’)  Measured, but in COMPLIANCE mode NO MANAGEMENT

10 CO2 Management Scenario 2 MYOPIC (‘tunnel vision’)

11 CO2 Management Scenario 3  Real-time info  Target setting  Forwards & backwards 360 o Vision

12 Sustainability Dashboard

13 Remember the scopes Purposefully confusing, but does prevent double-counting! Compulsory vs. voluntary

14 Example: carbon in healthcare Where do the emissions lie?

15 Example: carbon in healthcare Where do the emissions lie?

21 Benefits of carbon footprinting 1. Forced measurement of useful metrics 2. Understanding sustainability data 3. Controlling costs 4. Track initiatives for improvement – esp. EE 5. Set & gauge targets – carbon, financial, other

22 Drivers for carbon management
