Considering the food value chain generates a third of both EU and global carbon emissions, the industry has a big responsibility in helping the European Union reach net-zero carbon emissions by 2050. EU food and drink businesses have an opportunity to lead the world in this effort.
Our flagship resource is the 桃色视频 Decarbonisation Toolkit.聽Learn more about how your business can decarbonise with our toolkit below and find additional resources at the bottom of the page.
桃色视频’s SME Decarbonisation Toolkit has been prepared for SMEs in the food and drink manufacturing sector.
Its aim is to help SMEs decarbonise their scope 1 and 2 emissions, contributing to becoming net zero. It can be used by SMEs just getting started, or for SMEs part way through the net zero journey that seek further guidance and support.
The toolkit introduces case studies and templates to help implement five key steps towards net zero. These steps are:
Measuring emissions is the first step in a business’ net-zero journey. We’ll show you how to measure emissions in the different parts of your production process and how to calculate your baseline carbon footprint.
Measuring emissions is the first step in a business’ net-zero journey. We’ll show you how to calculate your activity data and apply your emissions factor.
Measuring emissions is the first step in a business’ net-zero journey. We’ll show you how to organise your emissions data and introduce our data collection template. You can download the data collection template below.
Once a business has a clear picture of their emissions, they’ll need to identify the best decarbonisation options for the situation. We’ll show you how to conduct a decarbonisation site audit and what areas to consider.
Once a business has a clear picture of their emissions, they’ll need to identify the best decarbonisation options for the situation. We’ll show you how to use the findings from a site audit to identify areas of improvement in your decarbonisation journey.
Once a business has a clear picture of their emissions, they’ll need to identify the best decarbonisation options for the situation. We’ll show you how to identify and assess different decarbonisation measures with our template. You can download the decarbonisation measures template below.
Once a business has a identified viable decarbonisation measures, it will need to plan how to implement them. We’ll show you what to consider when planning to implement decarbonisation measures, by undertaking a cost-benefit analysis and considering a prioritisation matrix.
