Today, MOSL has published its first Carbon Baseline Statement, one of the 12 commitments in our Sustainability Plan, in which we committed to taking action to understand our carbon footprint.
Our baseline carbon emissions for the financial year 2022/23 is 125t CO2e.
We have aligned our Carbon Footprint with the GHG protocol, grouping emissions under the appropriate scope. As the most used method of obtaining a carbon footprint, we hope it will allow us to cross-check with other companies’ data and improve the accuracy of our reporting over time.
Only ~7.5% of our footprint (9.43t CO2e) can be attributed to the office in Southampton. Colleague commuting and homeworking accounts for over 92.5% of our carbon footprint. This means reducing our carbon footprint in the future will be directly related to how successfully we work with colleagues to inform their choices.
The report outlines our approach to baselining our carbon footprint (including limitations and assumptions we’ve made) and includes recommendations and the next steps for the 2023/24 Report.
