Going Carbon Neutral
To solve the problem of climate change, we all need to take account of our carbon emissions and make continued efforts to reduce them, be it in our personal lives or in the workplace.
What is Carbon Literacy?
– an awareness of the impact of everyday activities on the climate
– Knowing which steps can be taken to reduce emissions
Carbon Cutting involves:
– measuring your carbon emissions using a tool such as a carbon footprint tracker
– once you understand your carbon footprint, you can work out ways to reduce it.
Vet Sustain are producing a carbon calculator. It is designed for veterinary practices, by veterinary organisations, so that practices can obtain an accurate and meaningful calculation of their carbon footprint. For more information visit: VetSustain. https://vetsustain.org/
