The slow but steady advancement of electric vehicles means we are heading in the right direction, but there is still a long way to go to combat the impacts of climate change. That means businesses like ours should be thinking of the future and making better choices now.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">T<a href=\"https:\/\/www.business-humanrights.org\/en\/big-issues\/un-guiding-principles-on-business-human-rights\/\">he United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights<\/a> (UNGP), in their paper titled \u2018Just Transitions For All\u2019 they provide a detailed account of the adverse impacts that climate change has on global human rights. It provides a framework for businesses to adopt to reduce their impact on the climate, with the fight for human rights at the forefront.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Firstly, the UNGP points out that \u201cbusinesses contribute to human rights impacts through their greenhouse gas emissions\u201d.\u00a0 This may seem obvious, as everyone plays a part in contributing to greenhouse gas emissions. However, it is important for businesses to take responsibility for the emissions their practices produce. We have taken steps, and continue to do so, that reduce our environmental impact. Most notably we have been a Carbon Neutral business since 2018, and you can read <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scottoiler.com\/commiting-to-the-environment-were-carbon-neutral\/\">here<\/a> to find out more detail about the specific steps we have taken to maintain this status.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Most recently, we are taking steps to make our product range more environmentally friendly. We have just introduced our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scottoiler.com\/product\/scottoil-all-climate-biodegradable-chain-oiler-refill-250ml\/\">Biodegradable All-Climate Green Oil<\/a> as an option alongside our Standard Blue and Red Scottoil refills when purchasing a Scottoiler system. This oil works in all climates and is made from a vegetable base, meaning it is readily biodegradable. As such, there is now no reason to use any other oils and we hope that customers will get on board as we make this move towards a more sustainable future.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Sustainable development is key to shifting business operations in the future. As the UNGP put it, business operations in the present shouldn\u2019t impact \u201cthe ability of future generations to meet their own needs.\u201d As such, we maintain a low-waste and ethical practice of sourcing parts from the most efficient suppliers, ensuring that production of Scottoiler systems generates as little waste as possible.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Finally, a renewed reliance on a circular economy is key to preserving supplies of important resources into the future. To take part within a circular economy as much as possible, we offer strong warranties with all of our products and do our best to repair a system before providing a replacement. Where a repair is not possible, we also offer a supply of remanufactured products which have been repaired to operate like new products.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">All of these measures place our commitment to the environment at the forefront of everything we do. It is our hope that we set an example within the industry of future-proof business practices, ensuring that we do all that is possible to preserve our planet.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If you would like to learn more about the UNGP\u2019s report, you can read it <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ihrb.org\/uploads\/reports\/Just_Transitions_For_All_-_Business%2C_Human_Rights%2C_and_Climate_Action_-_IHRB_Nov2020.pdf\">here<\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At Scottoiler, we\u2019re passionate about doing what we can for the environment.
