2024 Environmental Report
Defining our Scopes of Influence According to the Greenhouse Gas Protocol, all emissions must be classified into one of three categories: Scope 1, Scope 2, or Scope 3:
Consequently, we have included the following scope elements in our carbon reporting:
When defining the scope of our carbon footprint, the following criteria were considered:
0%
Scope 1 Event Vehicles (petrol, diesel), Generator Fuel 0 tonnes
Causality Whether the emissions in question are a direct result of the event or would have occurred regardless of it. Stakeholder Perspectives To ensure the carbon footprint scope aligns with the perspectives and priorities of those directly involved in or affected by our events. Influenceability Whether stakeholders involved can partially or fully influence the emissions. Regulatory and Industry Standards To align with internationally recognised methodologies, including the Greenhouse Gas Protocol, and comply with relevant laws, regulations, and industry best practices. Life Cycle Perspective The emissions across the life cycle of each event, from planning and production to post-event impacts.
Scope 1 Emissions are ‘direct’ emissions from owned or controlled sources*. Scope 2 Emissions are ‘indirect’ emissions from the production of the energy an organisation purchases. Scope 3 Emissions include all ‘indirect’ emissions not directly generated by the organisation, including those produced by customers using an organisation’s products/services and emissions generated by suppliers in the production and delivery of the goods/services an organisation uses. Note *As our event vehicles and generators are hired and operated by a third-party; this data is included in Scope 3.
