I'll share some of my notes this week on Instagram!

[merrilark]

I really hate having memory issues (it's scary) but sometimes it's nice.

I opened my email today only to be surprised to find I had email notices from Thriftbooks and BetterWorldBooks that my orders should arrive this week (I forgot completely about them even though I ordered these literally just a few days ago). And I was like "oh cool!!!" and then realized I could not remember what most of the books I ordered even were.

And, like, yeah, that's very scary actually. I don't like that. I don't know why I struggle so badly with remembering things. BUT now it's like getting a surprise book delivery and that's very fun gkslgkslg

Ambassador Mostafa Sherbiny: Issues the first Arab encyclopedia to measure the carbon footprint

The international expert in sustainability and climate risk assessment and observer of the Paris Climate Change Agreement at the United Nations, Ambassador Mustafa El-Sherbiny, stressed the growing interest in measuring the carbon footprint and reducing it globally from industrial to individual levels, given that the concepts of carbon footprint and climate change are new to the world.

Ambassador El-Sherbiny said, in special statements to the Middle East News Agency, today, Thursday, on the occasion of the issuance of the encyclopedia of carbon footprint, emissions management and verification, that the green industrial revolution and the world’s entry into a new era of sustainability and green growth to achieve sustainable development goals have become the main concern of the entire world to restore the planet and combat risks. Climate change, biodiversity and pollution.

He added that this scientific encyclopedia of carbon emissions management includes 7 separate books with 3,000 pages in which we review the companies’ carbon footprint guide, the product’s carbon footprint guide, the guide to verifying and disclosing greenhouse gas emissions, the guide to the mechanism for adjusting carbon limits, the blue carbon guide, the carbon offset projects guide, and the carbon markets guide and the road. To the green economy and all areas of greenhouse gas emissions, in a comprehensive and detailed manner, including scientific elements, methodological and technological aspects, standards, industrial case studies and communication of carbon footprint results, under the supervision and scientific review of an international team of experts, and focusing on methodology, modeling and case studies.

El-Sherbiny continued that carbon footprint accounting for organizations and companies helps to understand their carbon emissions so that they can identify hot spots, which enables them to begin efforts to reduce emissions with measures that have a significant impact, noting that these books describe aspects of modeling and carbon footprint calculations in organizations, products, and carbon projects. Blue and carbon markets.

The international expert in sustainability explained that the encyclopedia emphasizes the importance of identifying non-polluting energy sources as well as sustainability, and also provides a wealth of information about practices and methods in detecting the carbon footprint, treating it, and issuing carbon certificates. This encyclopedia is the first in the Arab world and is considered a world leader as an important reference that discusses in detail the basic data for assessing, compensating and reducing the carbon footprint. It uses case studies on methods and practices from different locations around the world, and explains that the problems of the carbon footprint are truly global, and how they can be addressed in countless ways. From areas of life, from industry to agriculture, energy and solid waste.

Regarding greenhouse gas accounting, or in other words, what is the carbon footprint, El-Sherbiny said that carbon accounting is a way to calculate the amount of greenhouse gases that are emitted by a company or organization. As is the case with financial accounting, carbon accounting measures the impact of the activities of the organization or company and is known as Carbon accounting is also known as “greenhouse gas accounting,” and is used to estimate the carbon footprint of companies, governments, and even individuals.

El-Sherbiny said: “Even when a company or organization succeeds in reducing its carbon emissions as much as possible, calculating its carbon footprint will help it estimate its remaining emissions, and then the organization can use climate investment to offset its remaining emissions and complete its journey towards net zero carbon. Organizations may wish to… “Companies need to share their progress with stakeholders such as customers, investors and employees or may even be required to report their emissions by law, as carbon accounting enables companies to report their climate impact.”

Regarding the special procedures for carbon footprint accounting, El-Sherbiny explained that carbon accounting requires two things: They are: data collection and processing. In order for companies to be able to effectively account for their emissions, they must ensure that the data collection process they undertake is comprehensive, and that the data processing methodology they follow is sound, as carbon accounting relies on two sets of data: business activity data and describing Activities undertaken by companies and emission factor data that quantify greenhouse gas emissions. Once all the required data is collected, it can be translated into emissions estimates.

El-Sherbiny pointed out that the Global Greenhouse Gas Protocol is the most widely used standard for calculating the carbon footprint, and the accuracy of this estimate depends on the comprehensiveness of the calculated emission sources, the quality of the expenditure and activity data inputs, and the accuracy of the emission factors used.

In response to the question, “Why should companies use carbon footprint accounting?” El-Sherbiny said that calculating the carbon footprint is essential for any company that wants to reduce its carbon footprint. In addition to contributing to the fight against climate change, it also helps companies attract customers, investors and employees. Because calculating carbon emissions is the first step towards reducing emissions, allowing companies to switch to low-carbon activities or materials, but calculating value chain emissions can be a difficult task, as it involves collecting many types of data from many sources and then translating this. Data to total emissions; Value chain emissions make up a large portion of a company's carbon footprint, but they do not originate directly from the company. This makes it difficult to calculate and reduce them, and commercial companies, with suppliers numbering in the thousands, face particular difficulties in calculating value chain emissions.

El-Sherbiny revealed that using a hybrid methodology, companies can conduct a spending-based carbon footprint estimate to get an initial overview of the sources of emissions in their value chain, and then improve the assessment.

Tips On How You Can Get The Most Out Of Green Energy

Every day, many people waste tons of energy, while using many things in their home. Whether it's through simple appliances or water usage, people waste energy at home, rather than using green energy. Here is a bit of advice that will help you make use of green energy in your own home.

If your home has a pool or hot tub, look into a solar water heating system. Installing a solar water heating system costs about the same as a conventional system, but operating costs for the system will be much lower. Repair costs for solar heating systems are often lower as well.

As you ready yourself to make the switch to green energy, try getting a step ahead of the game by decreasing your present energy needs. By using less energy, it will be that much easier to switch to alternative sources because you won't be using as much. Good ways to start include using less light in your home, shortening hot showers and using cool instead of hot water for laundry.

For green energy use in your home, you should change all your incandescent bulbs to the new energy efficient fluorescent bulbs. Not only will you save a bundle on your energy bill, but you will help conserve energy for future generations and reduce your own impact on the power grid in your city.

Take the time to dry your clothes naturally. The dryer in your home takes up a lot of energy and it is quite simple to just hang your clothes and allow them to air dry. If you do need to use the dryer, then be sure to clean out the lint to help it work more efficiently.

A wind turbine could help you cut down your electric bill by as much as 90%. Before you invest in this type of equipment, find out if the wind is strong enough to produce the amount of energy you need and get a professional to help you choose the right size of turbine.

Green energy can benefit anyone, whether they think global warming is real or not. With just a few minor alterations to your daily routine, you can realize significant savings on your energy bill.

Air Chathams' carbon offset journey with TTI and CarbonClick

Integrated voluntary flight offsetting

About Air Chathams Proudly New Zealand-owned and operated. Flying over the skies of New Zealand, Australia, and the South Pacific, including Whakatāne, Kāpiti Coast, Whanganui, Wellington, Christchurch, Chatham Islands and Norfolk Island. Air Chathams was founded with a simple objective: to offer aviation solutions for a remote, isolated island community so they could further develop into the thriving economy we see today. They are a customer-focused and solution-orientated airline, who thrive on being innovative problem solvers, that deliver safe, efficient, and sustainable outcomes for the many communities throughout Aotearoa and the Pacific that they serve.

About TTI (Travel Technology Interactive) Travel Technology Interactive is an international and leading technology company listed on EURONEXT Growth in Paris, has been an AMADEUS IT GROUP worldwide business partner since 2005, and has also been recognized as an IATA Simplifying the Business (StB) Preferred Partner since 2006. TTI provides seamless cloudification for end-to-end Passenger Service Systems (PSS) and Cargo Management Systems (CMS) for the transportation industry. Headquartered in France, TTI offices are located worldwide: in Brazil, Singapore, and Panama.

The challenge Air Chathams set out on a mission to shrink their carbon footprint across all facets of their operations. They were eager to involve their customers in this quest and aimed to have 30% of passengers choosing to offset their carbon emissions when booking flights by May 2025.

To reach this ambitious target, they needed a solution that seamlessly integrated into their booking system, which is managed by Passenger Service System (PSS) provider Travel Technology Interactive (TTI). Close collaboration among Air Chathams, TTI, and CarbonClick was essential to create a simple, user-friendly, and integrated solution.

The solution CarbonClick and TTI joined forces to pioneer the very first end-to-end carbon offset Internet Booking Engine (IBE) solution that is fully integrated into a single PSS. Working closely with Air Chathams, CarbonClick ensured the service's visual and tonal alignment with their booking process, as an integral part of ancillary offerings.

When booking a flight, passengers now have the option to calculate their carbon footprint and learn how their decision to offset emissions contributes to making a positive impact on the planet and society. Every contribution is directly and instantly traceable to the climate projects it supports, providing passengers with a clear and immediate understanding of their positive impact.

The cost of the offset is displayed as a separate line item in the total booking cost.

The outcome Traditionally, the extensive time and expense required for such an integrated solution deterred many airlines from implementing similar programmes. As a result, only a handful of global carriers have adopted end-to-end integrated initiatives to date.

The partnership between TTI and CarbonClick empowers all of TTI's airline clients to seamlessly implement the solution and incorporate it into their passenger booking systems in just a matter of days. Air Chathams proudly became the first TTI customer to adopt this innovative carbon offset solution.

Air Chathams customers not only can easily add the carbon offset ancillary when booking online, but TTI and CarbonClick ensured that their reservations team were able to easily add the carbon offset to their customers bookings over the phone or email too, via the backend of TTI. This was an important element for Air Chathams as their customers highly value the ability to talk to a real-life person to make a reservation.

Why Air Chathams chose to work with CarbonClick “CarbonClick’s project range and quality appealed to us. They could offer us a local project to include into our mix, and their rigorous selection methodology assured us of the quality of the projects. With Air Chathams being the first TTI airline to integrate the solution into our booking system, we found CarbonClick to be very flexible to accommodate our needs and requirements. Another benefit was that CarbonClick provided us with a templated supporting webpage which we could set up within minutes. This webpage helps tell our sustainability story and engage our customers in offsetting at any stage. We are also related to CarbonClick due to being a fellow New Zealand business.” Estelle Bray-Taylor, Marketing and Communications Advisor, Air Chathams
