2. TARGET your G.I.G

Why focus on G.I.G? These three areas are major contributors to your practice's carbon pawprint, and the data is easy to collect from your electricity bills, gas bills, and isoflurane purchases.

G.I.G is the easiest way to reduce your practice's carbon waste, save money and support the future of animal health. 

G - GRID ENERGY

• Switch to renewable energy sources
• Improve energy efficiency with LED lighting
• Optimise heating and cooling systems
• Install solar panels where possible
• Reduce electricity consumption from the grid

I - ISOFLURANE

• Monitor and optimise anaesthetic gas usage
• Implement low-flow anaesthesia techniques
• Reduce waste anaesthetic gases
• Train team on efficient practices

G - GAS

• Switch from gas to electric appliances where possible
• Improve gas appliance efficiency
• Consider heat pump alternatives to gas heating
