Going green Podcast #23 | What is meant by Carbon Neutral?

What is meant by Carbon Neutral and how can we get there is a common question. Philip and Paul discuss how they can get to carbon neutral or better. My company buys in Power. Much of this is made via solar panels, but at night we need to get the power from the grid, which is up to 50% renewably generated. Our hot water is supplied during the summer by solar thermal, but in the winter not enough heat is generated so we need to buy in green house unfriendly methane gas. We need water and this also has a greenhouse content to it. Our vehicles are not electric but we don't use them much for the company only going out a short distance every few weeks. To offset these emissions we need to buy some carbon credit in some form by planting some new tree of finding some other form of carbon sequestration. #climateemergency #cop26glasgow #climatecrisis #environment #globalwarming #climatechangeisreal #carbonneutrality
