The document discusses Carbon Management Programme at Carefoots that aims to reduce site carbon emissions and energy consumption. It outlines drivers for change including ISO 14001, corporate social responsibility, and government policies. It then provides examples of carbon footprint from typical office equipment. The rest of the document details Carefoots' efforts to measure, benchmark, and map their carbon footprint from construction activities and supply chain. It establishes current carbon benchmarks and sets goals to improve efficiency through better waste management, transport, and energy usage reduction over the coming years.

3. In the beginning………
• Carbon Trust – Literature for Site/Office
• Overnight a computer uses 150 balloons worth of CO2
• Leaving a computer on overnight for a year creates
enough CO2 to fill a double-decker bus.
• A monitor left on for 90 minutes uses one balloon’s
worth of CO2
• A photocopier or printer left on overnight uses 100
balloons worth of CO2
• A 2°C increase in office temperature creates enough
CO2 in a year to fill a hot air balloon.
• Office lights left on overnight use enough energy in a
year to heat a home for almost 5 months

4. Then………
Water Gas Electricity
Metering will automatically improve energy
consumption by 8%
Fuel Waste
SWMP

5. Now………
Measure and benchmark our
construction carbon footprint
Map our supply chain to
demonstrate construction carbon
miles footprint and demonstrate
local suppliers = evidence
Understand our footprint to enable
improvement
