Company Representative and Data Controller: Cihan ÜSTÜNDAŞ
The purpose of this report is to calculate the carbon footprint of an Met Kağıtçılık Sanayi ve Ticaret Anonim Şirketi specified product in a manner consistent with the International Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) Standards (ISO 14040 and ISO 14044). This report has been prepared in accordance with the requirements and guidelines for the calculation of a partial carbon footprint set out in "ISO 14067:2018.
" According to clause 6.3 of the ISO 14067:2018 Standard, a carbon footprint study is the calculation of a product's potential contribution to global warming, expressed in CO2e, in line with the stopping criterion, by calculating all significant GHG emissions and removals over the product's life cycle or selected processes.
The content of the report has been prepared in accordance with ISO 14067:2018 clause 7.
Institutions and organizations determine national and international climate change policies and manage measures to reduce greenhouse gas risks in order to turn current and future risks into opportunities. In this direction, it is important for institutions and organizations to determine the carbon emissions of the products they produce.
In this context, this report analyzes the activities of Met Kağıtçılık Sanayi ve Ticaret Anonim Şirketi;
Carbon Footprint is the measurement of greenhouse gases and expression of the environmental effects caused by all kinds of activities of individuals, institutions and organizations in terms of Carbon Dioxide Equivalent (CO2e). The definition of Greenhouse Gases determined by the Kyoto Protocol includes Carbon Dioxide (CO2), Methane (CH4), Nitrous Oxide (N2O), Hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), Perfluorocarbons (PFCs) and Sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) gases and they are used to determine their amounts. One unit of Carbon Dioxide Equivalent (CO2e) is used.
The effect of greenhouse gases on global warming is shown in Figure 1 with ratios.
The development of industry changes the chemical content of the atmosphere, causes the accumulation of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, especially the increase in CO2, CH4 and N2O levels. If no precautions are taken, global warming will cause an increase in sea level, change in local climate conditions, and negative effects on vegetation and water resources.
The impact of economic activities on Greenhouse Gas Emission is shown in Figure 2 with ratios.
Global warming affects the health of living things, causes the deterioration of many ecosystems, and continues to be. Therefore, individuals, companies, organizations and governments need to act together to reduce carbon emissions.
This study was conducted for Met Kağıtçılık Sanayi ve Ticaret Anonim Şirketi based on ISO 14067:2018 standards.
ISO 14067:2018 Standard was taken into consideration in determining our system limits in the calculation of our product carbon footprint. Our system boundaries are determined as cradle to gate. Met Kağıtçılık Sanayi ve Ticaret Anonim Şirketi has included all of their scopes in its account.
Indirect Emission Identification Criteria: In the meetings held with the Greenhouse Gas Management Team and institution officials from different departments, the criteria relaated to the prioritization of indirect emissions were determined as Impact, Risk and Dimension. Their definitions are described in the table below. Uncertainty calculation will be made for all direct and indirect emissions.
Met Kağıtçılık Sanayi ve Ticaret Anonim Şirketi reviews indirect emission prioritization criteria when the following conditions are met;
Changes are brought to the agenda by the GHG Management Team and a decision to review the criteria is considered.
