Bafta albert, the UK screen industry’s environmental sustainabilty organisation has teamed with the Sustainable Entertainment Alliance (SEA), a consortium of studios, broadcasters and streamers, to launch a guide to help define and track production emissions for international productions.
The aim is to make clear the definition of different emissions, described as Scope 1, 2 and 3, on a set, who is responsible for them and how to account for them.
Scope 1 emissions are direct emissions from sources owned or controlled by a production; Scope 2 emissions are indirect emissions from purchased electricity, steam, heating, or cooling; and Scope 3 are indirect emissions from activities up and down the value chain, such as emissions from business travel by means not owned or controlled by a production, water, and waste disposal.
The guide covers the full production journey and has practical examples of how to track and report emissions to help productions more accurately and consistently meet reporting requirements of broadcasters and studios.
The papers will also help productions create a Greenhouse Gas Declaration (an inventory and clear record of emissions) that can be used for reports or in tracking tools like the Bafta albert Toolkit or the PEACH and PEAR in the US.
