RELEVANCE OF OFFSETTING:
1. Avoid
2. Reduce Scope 1 and Scope 2 energy consumption Offset
and hence GHG emissions (energy efficiency)
3. Use more renewable energy sources for Scope 1 Renewable Energy
and 2 and hence reduce GHG emissions
4. Develop products that use less energy Energy Efficiency
5. Avoid or Reduce Scope 3 emissions by avoiding /
reducing activities/ increasing energy efficiency Avoid
6. Use more renewable energy sources for Scope 3
7. Offset emissions
