Conscious Business Air Travel
All about sustainable corporate business travel in your route to Net Zero, while taking full responsibility for your carbon emissions.
Sustainable Business Travel
Through our collaboration with clients, it’s apparent that corporate business artravel emissions have already returned to pre-COVID levels, which is neither good news for the climate nor for our ambitions to remain below 1.5 degrees of global warming. The aviation sector is responsible for 4% of global greenhouse gas emissions. It is already clear that innovations and developments in fuels will not be sufficient to achieve sustainability goals in time for 2030. Anthesis guides clients on their way to net zero emissions and in this difficult to decarbonise area by providing valuable insight into travel emissions, development and implementing travel policies and practical advice about how to take full responsibility for travel emissions by investing in high quality carbon credits.
Anthesis can accurately calculate the carbon emissions produced by air travel via our Flight Carbon Calculator, using a fuel-based methodology. By analysing all data from your organisation’s air travel over the past year, you will not only have a baseline for setting reduction targets but also a framework for creating a reduction plan.
Our TravelScan service guides you through a process to identify which policies will have the most impact and quantifies your reduction potential as e.g., avoiding flights and opt for alternative travel modalities. We can also support you in developing a travel policy and even help with its implementation to ensure you meet your reduction goals.
Our state-of-the-art Flight Carbon Calculator can be integrated into travel management companies’ booking systems. Fight emissions can be provided during the booking process, allowing you to choose the flight with the lowest emissions. It offers an accurate ‘fuel-based’ calculation method using the aircraft type and airline. The tool facilitates offsetting of carbon emission through investments in carbon credits automatically.
SAF is a biofuel used to power aircraft that has comparable properties to conventional jet fuel but with a smaller carbon footprint. Depending on the feedstock and technologies used to produce it, SAF can reduce life cycle GHG emissions by around 80% compared to conventional jet fuel.
This innovative solution provides possibilities to airlines and corporates to reduce their Scope and Scope 3 GHG emissions. Anthesis can guide you in how to incorporate SAF in your Net Zero strategy.
For companies wanting to act now on their air travel emissions and contribute to several of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) at the same time, we offer two options for carbon credit investment:
- Balancing (‘offsetting’) emissions at the point-of-sale (on the booking invoice) via Travel Management Companies (TMC’s).
- Balancing (‘offsetting’) emissions based on your travel carbon footprint; we can perform the calculation based on data provided by you or your TMC.
