Carbon Footprint

Carbon Footprint

By adapting to the Myanmar context, we utilise the method following the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) approach to calculate your carbon footprint, enabling a comprehensive assessment of your emissions across the three scopes. 

This approach offers a straightforward way to account for emissions associated with your organisation's activities, including those within your direct control (Scope 1), those from purchased energy (Scope 2), and those from your supply chain and other indirect sources (Scope 3).
 

Scope 1 Emission

Direct emissions, often referred to as scope 1 emissions, encompass all greenhouse gas emissions that result from the activities of a company or are under its direct control. 

These emissions typically include:

(i) Fuel combustion in company factories or warehouses, (ii) Emissions generated by the company's owned or controlled vehicles, including cars, trucks, and other forms of transportation, (iii) Emissions associated with specific industrial processes, such as chemical manufacturing or cement production. These can include emissions of gases like methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O), (iv) Emissions from the combustion of waste materials, such as incineration.

Scope 2 Emission

Indirect emissions from electricity purchased and used by the organisation. Emissions are created during the production of the energy and eventually used by the organisation. 

Scope 2 emissions are primarily linked to the electricity and energy purchased by an organization from external sources, such as utility providers. This includes electricity used for lighting, heating, cooling, and powering equipment.

In the case of Myanmar, we use the reference emission factors from neighbouring countries.

Scope 3 Emission

All other Indirect emissions from activities of the organisation occur from sources that they do not own or control. These are usually the greatest share of the carbon footprint. 

Scope 3 emissions in the context of business travel and staff commute refer to the indirect greenhouse gas emissions generated by a company's activities that are not directly controlled or owned by the company. 

Calculating scope 3 emissions related to business travel and staff commute involves collecting data on the distances travelled, transportation modes used, and fuel consumption (for personal vehicles).
