Carbon Reduction Plan
TayCare Medical Ltd is committed to achieving Net Zero emissions by 2050.
Baseline Emissions Footprint
Baseline emissions are a record of the greenhouse gases that have been produced in the past and were produced prior to the introduction of any strategies to reduce emissions. Baseline emissions are the reference point against which emissions reduction can be measured.
| Baseline Year: March 2022 to February 2023 | |
| Additional Details relating to the Baseline Emissions calculations. | |
| TayCare Medical Ltd has not previously assessed or reported emissions, this first reporting period is their Baseline Emissions Footprint, against which future emissions are to be measured. | |
| Baseline year emissions: | |
| EMISSIONS | TOTAL (tCO2e) |
| Scope 1 | 21.087 |
| Scope 2 | 25.808 |
| Sub-set Scope 3 1: Purchased goods and services 3: Fuel- and energy-related activities (not included in scope 1 or scope 2) 4. Upstream transportation and distribution 5: Waste generated in operations 6: Business travel 7: Employee commuting |
123.478 |

Emissions reduction targets
In order to continue our progress toward achieving Net Zero, we have adopted the following carbon reduction targets.
We project that carbon emissions will decrease over the next five years to 131.831 tCO2e by 2028. This is a reduction of 22.6%
Carbon Reduction Projects
We are currently implementing an Environmental Management System which we hope to have certified to ISO 14001 by Q2 of 2024. We have identified our significant environmental aspects and their associated impacts and have made plans to improve our environmental performance in these areas. These measures include improving housekeeping and maintenance measures, employee education and incentives, control procedures, renewable energy installation, retrofitting of our premises to reduce heat loss and investment in new technologies.
