Cedrec's travel statistics and carbon emissions calculations have been calculated for 2019 and it is good news for us!
Overall Cedrec's carbon usage is down 47% despite travel having increased by 58% over the same period.
In 2014 our Consultancy team travelled 11,532 miles and emitted 3,417kg CO2 emissions, whereas in 2019 they travelled 18,235 miles but emitted 2,881kg CO2 emissions.
There has been an increase in miles travelled by 53% in 2019, but the carbon emissions have gone down by 23%. These statistics have been made possible by using more sustainable travel options, such as trains.
As a result, our offset programme, which involves tree planting in the UK, is now offsetting more than 100% of all our calculated emissions regarding travel and energy purchases.
We are offsetting 25 tonnes of CO2 equivalent, and our total emissions in 2019 were 19.15 tonnes. We do this through Forest Carbon, a local North East firm, who lead the way in voluntary carbon woodland creation in the UK.
