Renewal of our carbon-neutral certification
What does this mean ?
Each year, we are committed to measuring, reducing and compensating our CO2 emissions. To achieve this objective, we purchase carbon credits invested in Gold Standard-certified projects covering various sectors such as renewable energies, waste management and forestry. We also contribute to projects to protect and restore sensitive natural habitats in Quebec, operated by the Nature Conservancy of Canada.
Concrete actions for a healthier future.
Our ecological approach
This achievement was made possible by our collaboration with Planetair.ca and Maillon Vert as part of the eco+responsible Pharmacy program. We are determined to continue on this path, as we firmly believe in the importance of sustainable development and our role in creating positive effects for the environment.
Our certification process comprises several essential steps:
Assess our global annual emissions
We start by measuring all the pharmacy’s sources of greenhouse gas emissions.
Implement reduction actions
We prioritize actions to reduce our emissions, such as optimizing delivery routes and reducing plastic and paper consumption.
Here are some other concrete examples:
- We prioritize the use of recyclable paper packaging instead of plastic bags;
- We have upgraded certain equipment to be energy-efficient;
- We promote the electrification of delivery vehicles;
- We promote the purchase of responsible products;
- We reduce paper usage;
- We support community initiatives.
Compensate our residual emissions
We purchase certified carbon credits to offset the emissions we have not been able to eliminate.
Renew our commitment every year
We re-evaluate and renew our certification every year, ensuring continuous improvement in our environmental performance.
Awareness and commitment
We also make our employees and customers aware of the importance of our environmental actions, by highlighting our commitment to the Pharmacie Carboneutre certification.
