All BBC TV Programmes To Track Their Carbon Footprint

All BBC TV Programmes To Track Their Carbon Footprint

From April 3, programme makers will be required to submit an Albert footprint for all BBC TV commissions.

The BBC has announced that from April this year all of its TV programming within factual, comedy, drama, entertainment and daytime will have to track their carbon footprint using the Albert carbon calculator for TV production. This marks the BBC’s commitment to reducing its environmental impact and is part of its wider sustainability plan.

The Albert scheme aims to better understand the environmental impacts generated by programme production and to promote more sustainable ways of working. The scheme was devised by the BBC and is now managed by the BAFTA Albert Consortium. It has become a respected industry standard and has been adopted internationally.
