Ceylinco Life has announced that it has begun an assessment of the Carbon Footprint of its country-wide operations with The Carbon Consulting Company.
Advancing Ceylinco Life’s Green Agenda, this Level II Comprehensive Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Assessment will calculate all the major direct and indirect GHG emissions that are released as a result of the organisational operations of Sri Lanka’s life insurance leader to help minimise the impact of its business on the environment, the company said in a media release.
Ceylinco Life has already implemented a number of measures across various branches to become more sustainable, such as the construction of eco-friendly branch offices that are solar-powered and setting up rainwater harvesting, wastewater recycling, and energy-efficient lighting and air-conditioning systems. This assessment will enable Ceylinco Life to set in place more stringent mechanisms to quantify and report on its Carbon Footprint, continue with its sustainability initiatives, and further strengthen its leadership in the industry.
