Carbon Reductions


Reduce Emissions Now

 

Since the Paris agreement set in stone the importance of reducing global greenhouse gas emissions to cap global heating at 1.5 degrees (ie. the target of "Net Zero" emissions by 20250), emissions have continued to rise. 2024 was the first full year of global average temperature exceeding 1.5 degrees, and we are due to exceed 1.5 degrees permanently before 2030.

 

2025 must be the year we pass peak global emissions and start to make rapid reductions. The science mandates that we strive for near 50% reduction by 2030, and over 90% of current levels by 2050.

That can seem pretty daunting, so here's how to put it into practice...

 

 

CARBON REDUCTION FRAMEWORK

This simple checklist allows you to take meaningful action to reduce your carbon footprint, effective immediately.

If you do nothing else to fight the climate crisis, do this.

 

And if you want to do more, quantify your efforts, and receive recognition of your impact through certification, check out the Verified Carbon Reduction Plan standard below!

Read The Framework

Verified Carbon Reduction Plan

Applicable for: Optical Practices & Industry Suppliers

 

Many businesses understandably want credible assurance that their efforts are more than empty words, meanwhile investors and procurement decisions increasingly require a decent Carbon Reduction Plan - even for SMEs.

 

Based on the Carbon Reduction Framework, it's a simple step to quantify and time-base your emissions reductions, and have it summarised into a Vreified Carbon Reduction Plan with third-party, certified assurance.
