…, as set out by the Greenhouse Gas Protocol. The carbon emissions are categorised into three groups to clarify how the emissions are generated, and who is accountable for these: Figure 2: Scope of emissions targeted within this Climate Change Action Plan. Scope 1 includes direct emissions from sources that we own and control, including fuel combustion, company vehicles, and fugitive emissions…

… reduce carbon emissions from the borough by 36.7% and Haringey is on target in meeting the 40% reduction by 2020 (also known as 40:20 target) from our 2005 baseline.

… the remaining 15%. Targets in Haringey are set for carbon emissions only, however our actions will indirectly reduce other GHGs simultaneously. Trajectory to Reduce Emissions by 2041 Figure 3. This graph shows the rate of decarbonisation required across the energy sectors from around 750 kilo tonnes (kt) CO2 equivalent to less than 100 ktCO2 equivalent. It shows that some sectors…

…) reduction and in its work on Climate Change. The borough is on target to deliver its 40% carbon reduction by 2020 from its 2005 baseline.
