CO2 Overview
Recommended Steps

Emissions from directly related activities from the company’s operations (eg emissions from heating, car ownership or waste).

Packaging, plastic cups and plastic straws are the largest source of waste directly related to your activities. Consider migrating to paper packaging and renewable cups.
Description
Emissions to the atmosphere from indirect consumption of an energy commodity (eg purchase of electricity).
Recommendations
Energy emissions make up the largest share of your Scope 2 emissions. Consider switching to renewable energy sources.
Description
Other indirect issues – emissions that result from activities that the company does not own or control.
Recommendation

1. Regularly check for leaks in pipes and taps
2. Reduce bottled water sales
3. Only serve water to guests who request it
4. Upgrade your dishwashers to ecological models
5. Make sure your dishwashers are always full
6. Use air-cooled ice machines
