Departmental Carbon Emissions
Greg Clark: To ask the Secretary of State for Defence whether his Department has adopted the Carbon Trust’s Carbon Management Programme. [266729]
Mr. Kevan Jones: The Ministry of Defence (MOD) set up a partnership agreement with the Carbon Trust in July 2004, the scope of which goes wider than the Carbon Management Programme. We are currently taking the necessary steps to achieve the Carbon Trust Standard which is a key enabler in achieving the Carbon Reduction Commitment. The MOD is continuing to work with the Carbon Trust on a number of specific
carbon reduction projects. Examples include, the Catterick Garrison Carbon Management Energy Efficiency Project which, once implemented, is expected to result in a reduction of approximately 12,900 tonnes of CO2.
