Business certification
We have partnered with Planet Mark and are committed to measuring and reducing our carbon footprint year on year, and to measuring and reporting our social value contributions. On an annual basis, Planet Mark provides us with a full business certification, carbon footprint and social value contributions report, and associated targets. Read more about their process and our certification here.
Net zero carbon
We have committed to becoming a Net Zero Carbon business by 2030 through the Planet Mark’s Zeroby30 programme. This is an ambitious goal and we will be setting absolute reduction targets that will reduce our Scope 1 and 2 direct emissions to zero carbon. We will also be reducing our Scope 3 indirect emissions to as close to zero as possible and then offsetting the remaining carbon with exceptional schemes. We will provide updates on our progress through our reporting and by sharing our action plan to achieve this goal.
Our strategy, Better Places, will contribute towards the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). As part of our ongoing commitment to transparency and continuous reporting we will share how Better Places aligns with and supports the SDGs.
We will also actively seek opportunities for collaboration because we know that together we can create positive progress for all.
Through Better Places we are committed to working with all of our clients to meet their sustainability goals and promoting initiatives which lay the foundation for a sustainable future.
