Carbon Footprinting for Plastics Processors

Please check the entry requirements here before booking
 
Description
 
Reducing the carbon footprint of a site can have significant benefits both in terms of public relations and in confirming to the range of government regulations that are appearing around the world. 
Establishing a site carbon footprint is not difficult and this seminar will give details of how to do this. Simply gathering the information necessary for good energy management will result in gathering much of the information, but this is generally easily obtained and only needs to be formatted correctly to product a site carbon footprint. 
 
Calculating a site carbon footprint is optional in most parts of the world but an increasing number of countries are setting targets to be 'net zero' in terms of carbon emissions. This will inevitably mean that site carbon footprinting will be necessary. Many countries are also introducing legislation that requires enviromental reporting of greenhouse gas emissions, i.e., reporting the carbon footprint. In addition, many large customers, particularly retailers, are encouraging suppliers to calculate theri carbon footprint. This will eventually be cascaded down the supply chain to the plastics processors who supply these retailers directly or indirectly. At the consumer level there is also an interest in carbon footprinting but at this level the focus is more the product carbon footprint. This is a much more difficult proposition than a site carbon footprint.
