Method

Waste disposed is recorded through various means of measurement including estimation of weight by waste type. Particular waste types as described above are measured as a wet waste and converted to a bone dry (BD) weight. The wet waste weight is multiplied by the consistency of each waste type to determine the BD. The consistency is predetermined by the lab.

Landscape conservation funding includes restoration and conservation costs associated with the RER as well as the allocation of a proportion of the costs related to APRIL’s maintenance of conservation values under its production-protection model. The allocation is based on proportionate amount of each cost that is related to conservation and restoration.

The wood volume is based on wood delivered to the Mill.

Calculate from the records of fuel types used the amount consumed in boilers to generate power, heat and steam including energy use for mobile & including transportation. Each of the fuel types are converted to energy expressed by Giga Joule Lower Heating Value (GJ LHV) following the IPCC guidelines.

Calculate from the records of fuel types the quantity consumed by major categories of forest management activities by Fiber operations.

This covers energy used for Forest operations, infrastructure including wood transport from estate to mill; When a blend of fuel types is used (such as B20) the contribution to renewable and cleaner energy targets is calculated separately for each fuel rather than considering the blend as a cleaner fuel type.

Method

APRIL follows the international GHG protocol as developed by WRI/WBCSD to develop its emissions profile. The total emissions measured as emissions intensity is calculated based on tonnes of Scope 1 and 2 Mill Greenhouse Gas Emissions per tonne of product (paper, pulp and viscose). The emissions boundary scope covers gate-to-gate (wood processing in wood yard until pulp, paper and viscose production) of the three main GHGs: CO2, CH4, and N2O.

Baseline
0.55 tCO2e/product tonne

climate positive 1 — APRIL Asia

Method

To quantify the total GHG emission and removals across APRIL’s land bank from land use, APRIL follows the GHG Protocol Agricultural Guidance and IPCC Guidelines for Agricultural, Forestry, and Other Land Use. To detect the land cover change within the look-back period, i.e. 20 years APRIL utilized the remotely sensed data.

The GHG emission will be calculated as the total of carbon stock changes in woody biomass and soil organic carbon and include all major carbon fluxes such as peat decomposition, plantation growth and harvesting, and fires.

To quantify the amount of carbon unit to balance the emission, the Verified Carbon Standard (VCS), the Climate, Community and Biodiversity Standards (CCB), or other internationally accepted standard will be used.
