Reducing our environmental impact

As a business we acknowledge the global threat posed by climate change and we take our responsibility for environmental stewardship seriously, as in order to empower people and organisations to fulfil their unique potential, we must also protect the planet.  

From using renewable energy sources and reducing our emissions, to investing in reforestation initiatives around the world, we are taking a variety of actions to reach our target of net zero by 2040 across Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.  

Our ambition is to be an environmentally conscious business which understands and reduces its environmental impact globally.

We’re taking action to reduce our emissions to help us reach our target of net zero by 2040 across Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. When any of our offices renew or take a new lease we choose a renewable energy supplier where available. We’re also focused on reducing our emissions from business travel, with a reduction in business travel emissions per head of 55% compared to the 2019 base line year. And we are moving our company car fleet to hybrid or electric vehicles in the UK and EU, with 73% hybrid or electric in 2023. 

Additionally, we are looking at enhancing our Scope 3 emission reporting by including a wider range of categories, with a view to their incorporation into our 2040 net zero target.
