We have committed to reducing emissions over the next year by:
Our Net Emissions is the total amount of greenhouse gases we produced in the year once the amount we saved has been taken into account.

This chart shows how our emissions have changed over the last 5 years.
Reduced Business TravelA reduction of 301 tCO2e was achieved through a reduction in business travel in the 2020-2021 period. Whilst some of this will naturally come back post pandemic we aim to consolidate some of the reduction through an increased use of video conferencing. | Smartblend workingA further reduction of 40 tCO2e was achieved by a shift to working from home in the 2020-2021 period. Whilst some of this will naturally come back post pandemic we aim to consolidate some of the reduction through an increased take up of flexible working. |
