For the third year running we have audited our carbon emissions using the Vet Sustain carbon calculator. While not a perfect solution we do ‘offset’ our emissions and have chosen to support two projects this year – one in the rainforests of Panama, and a renewable energy project in India.
We also continue to audit our waste production. Much of our waste is classed as ‘clinical waste’, which has to be incinerated for health and safety reasons. However, of our general waste, we are pleased to report we have managed to shift the balance in favour of recycling and now send more for recycling than to general landfill.
