Carbon Report Explanation

A Carbon Report helps organizations track and manage their greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. It provides insight into the emissions caused by their activities and outlines ways to reduce or offset those emissions. For REDUX, the focus is on avoided CO2 emissions, the emissions that are prevented through responsible practices like the recycling and proper disposal of e-waste.

How Redux’s Carbon Report Works

Measuring GHG Emissions Emissions from Activities: REDUX calculates the emissions that come from its operations (like transportation, energy use, etc.). Avoided Emissions: REDUX also calculates the emissions that would have been created if ewaste was simply landfilled or incinerated. By using Redux’s services, those emissions are avoided.
Focus on E-Waste Disposal Business-as-Usual (BAU): Normally, when electronic waste (e-waste) is not handled properly, it either ends up in a landfill or is incinerated. Both of these methods release harmful CO2 emissions into the atmosphere.REDUX’s Solution: REDUX provides a proper recycling and resource recovery process. By remarketing usable materials and ensuring responsible disposal, REDUX avoids the harmful CO2 emissions that would have otherwise been released.
Calculating Avoided CO2 Emissions What REDUX Does: REDUX uses certified, sustainable methods (including its R2V3 certification) to handle e-waste, significantly reducing emissions compared to improper disposal.How It Helps: REDUX calculates how much CO2 is avoided by using these proper disposal methods. For example, if a ton of e-waste was going to be incinerated and release 100 kg of CO2, REDUX’s recycling and recovery might avoid that 100 kg.

Why Redux’s Carbon Report Matters for Partners

Carbon Tax Savings

In countries like Singapore, the government charges a carbon tax on emissions. Currently, the tax is $25 per ton of CO2 but is expected to rise to $80 per ton by 2030. By working with Redux, businesses can lower their carbon footprint and reduce the emissions they’re responsible for, which can lower their carbon tax liability.

Financial Incentives and Rebates

Redux is offering carbon rebates to encourage businesses to join in reducing their environmental impact. These rebates provide immediate financial benefits for adopting sustainable practices. ($50 per ton)

Resource Recovery

Redux provides a detailed and audited carbon report that documents how much CO2 emissions have been avoided by using its services. This helps businesses justify their environmental impact reductions and lower their carbon tax exposure.

Conclusion

REDUX‘s Carbon Report not only helps businesses track and manage their emissions but also showcases the environmental and financial benefits of working with REDUX to responsibly dispose of e-waste. By offering proper disposal, resource recovery, and avoided CO2 emissions, REDUX provides businesses with an opportunity to save money on carbon taxes while contributing to a greener planet.
