WHY SHOULD YOU GO CARBON NEUTRAL?

There are many advantages to your business in reducing your carbon footprint, including differentiating your service from competitors, engaging your staff and retaining and winning new customers by meeting growing demand for low carbon products and services.

RESEARCH FROM THE CARBON TRUST SHOWS: • Customers are increasingly loyal to brands seen as actively taking steps to reduce their carbon footprint.

• Demand for low carbon products and services is increasing.

• An effective carbon measurement programme enables you to identify areas within your business where you can easily increase efficiency to reduce costs.

• A strong environmental strategy will motivate your staff to take action on climate change and consider their own resource use within the workplace.

WITH EDEN KAFEVEND!

WE SUPPORT GLOBAL CARBON OFFSET PROJECTS For our 2017-18 CarbonNeutral® programme, we will be supporting two projects:

SUB-SAHARAN AFRICA: IMPROVED WATER INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECT

INDIA: RENEWABLE ENERGY PORTFOLIO

Nearly a billion people worldwide do not have access to safe drinking water. This project, currently based in Malawi, Uganda, Rwanda and Eritrea provides clean drinking water to small rural communities through repairs to broken boreholes. The project delivers a range of sustainable development benefits, including:

The projects in this portfolio deliver clean, renewable electricity to India’s national grid, displacing electricity which would have otherwise been drawn from fossil fuel power stations. The projects in this portfolio deliver the following sustainable development benefits:

• Water stewardship • Health and well-being • Infrastructure development • Empowering women • Climate adaptation Project website: http://www.naturalcapitalpartners.com/ projects/project/sub-saharan-africa-improved-waterinfrastructure

• Energy access • Infrastructure development • Job creation Value of wind power video: https://www.youtube.com/ watch?v=sjNQBUs2D6M Example project: http://www.naturalcapitalpartners.com/ projects/project/theni-wind

We work with Natural Capital Partners to voluntarily assess and offset our carbon emissions. You can choose to measure emissions for your whole company or for a specific product line, service or activity such as business travel.

Natural Capital Partners will advise you on which emissions you should measure and help you identify opportunities to reduce them – including internal efficiencies, carbon offsets and using green power.

HOW WE HELP AND YOU CAN TOO!

HELPING LOCAL & INTERNATIONAL CHARITIES. WHO CAN YOU SUPPORT?

Across Malawi, Uganda, Rwanda and Eritrea, we help provide clean drinking water to small rural communities through repairs to broken boreholes. These boreholes are designed to last for 20-50 years with maintenance and support funded through carbon finance.

Communities are offered water, sanitisation and hygiene training to help maintain the quality of the water. By providing clean water, communities no longer need to purify water through boiling.

This alleviates pressure on local forests and reduces exposure to indoor air pollution. Each borehole can provide about one million litres of safe drinking water per year, positively impacting approximately 3,000 children and 5,700 adults and reducing incidence of diarrhea.

FREE WATER FOR FUNDRAISERS Since 2010 Eden Kafevend has supplied over 50,000 bottles of 500ml water to local and national fundraisers through the ‘Free Water For Fundraisers’ initiative launched online and we’re proud to be able to offer support to some very deserving charity causes across the UK.
