The Group reported a 10.5% decline in its carbon emissions from 390 134 tonnes (2019) to 349 107 tonnes mainly as a result of less travelling on the back of the various Covid-19 lockdowns.
The Group continues to ensure that its vehicles are properly maintained and not overloaded. Along with continuous driver training, this ensures that carbon emissions from all vehicles meet manufacturers’ specifications. Unfortunately, the Group has no control over the Fuel Emission Standards. Currently South African Fuel complies with “Euro-2 Standards” and Europe with “Euro-6 Standards”.
The Group reported that its carbon emissions were as follows:
The Group reported that its consumption was as follows:
This data is used to implement programmes to control, mitigate and reduce, where possible, the carbon emissions used by the Group. Road travel comprises the most material element of the Group’s carbon footprint and as a result of having no control over Fuel Emission Standards, the Group does not believe there is any benefit in setting emission reduction targets. The Group recognises both the financial and environmental benefits of ongoing carbon emission reduction and will continue to look for opportunities to reduce its carbon footprint.
