… service-based activities. Borough Wide Emissions Pathway Appendix A contains updated emissions data relating to borough-wide pathways to carbon neutrality. This modelling uses EnergyPRO and looks at emissions from Southwark’s buildings, on-road transport and energy supply, assessing the opportunities for emissions reduction. Achieving carbon neutral assumes a transition to electrified…
… one/two, left; Scope three right) of the council’s own footprint. The dominant sources of emissions are housing (14%) and procurement (>80%). 14 Council’s Own Emissions Pathway The potential impact of various carbon-reducing measures has been estimated using high-level modelling. This provides an indication of the scale and nature of change required for the council…
… considered as follows: - Reduction in vehicle mileage - Switch to EV for all vehicles - Energy efficient lights and appliances - Retrofit of council buildings - Switching away from gas heating - Local renewables - Offsetting With targeted actions across energy supply and usage, retrofit of buildings and a shift in transport away from carbon intensive modes, the ‘ambitious’ pathway sees…
… a 57% reduction in emissions by 2030. Figure 1.3: Pathways analysis for the council to 2030, based on indicative measures. Carbon Offset Carbon offsetting is where reductions in greenhouse gases are made in one place to compensate for emissions elsewhere. Offsetting carbon will always be required as some greenhouse gas emission in the borough is unavoidable. Some activities, even…
… the prospect of meeting the commitments set out in the Paris Agreement, it is essential that policies in response to the economic crisis avoid locking nations into carbon intensive pathways, and instead steer economies towards a resilient green recovery. In 2020, the Climate Change Committee (CCC) called for the UK government to use the economic recovery to accelerate the shift towards a low-carbon…
