As a climate friendly producer, SweetDream has decided to voluntarily calculate the greenhouse gases (GHG) emissions of its operations to evaluate whether these emissions have improved in recent years. We have engaged world leading energy and environmental consultancy firm, McKinnon and Clarke to quantify the carbon footprint of our operations as a result of energy used, from 2006 through 2008.

All SweetDream emissions were only from consumption of purchased electricity because we use no fossil fuel-powered machinery in our manufacturing, we emit no GHG from burning of fossil fuel at our plants. We deeply concerned to conserve the environment by minimising any adverse impact on the environment and we continue to maintain a safe environment for the community as a whole.

The results of the exercise have revealed that the carbon intensity of our operations has consistently decreased each reporting year. By the end of 2008, SweetDream had reduced its carbon intensity by 46% over its 2006 levels.

What is an organizational carbon footprint?
An organizational carbon footprint is the total amount of greenhouse gases emitted by an entire company over the course of one year. It is usually measured in tonnes of carbon dioxide (tCO2e).

What is greenhouse gas (GHG) and the effects on earth?
Greenhouse gases are gases in an atmosphere that absorb and emit radiation within the thermal infrared range. This process is the fundamental cause of the greenhouse effect/ global warming.

What is carbon intensity?
Carbon intensity is the ratio of a company's total annual greenhouse gas emissions (its carbon footprint) to its annual production volume.

The result
SweetDream carbon intensity has decreased every year since the 2006 base year. By the end of
2008, SweetDream had reduced its carbon intensity by 46% over its 2006 levels.
