Green Pledge

In 2021 we made 5 Green pledges. We updated these 6-Sep-2023 and intend to now update annually.

We’d like your feedback on our pledges as we continue to learn how to be even Greener.

And our consultants have created a shared list of the personal changes they are making.

Our two company directors currently mainly work from home, and their offices use 100% renewable electricity and 100% carbon neutral gas. They are in the process of converting their house to remove the use of gas.
In Sep 2023, we calculated our scope 1 and scope 2 emissions as being almost zero.

We changed our two company cars in Aug 2021 to be 100% electric. Whenever possible, we aim to fill them with renewable electric.
We will encourage our clients to use the virtual meeting approach we learnt during the pandemic, whenever possible.
Where travel is necessary, we commit to carbon offsetting so that the travel is carbon negative.
In Sep 2023, we chose 2019 as our base year for our commitment to the Science Based Target Initiative (SBTi). We calculated our scope 3 emissions as 43.5 tCO2e. We have committed to a 46% reduction by 2030. We will publish our emissions annually.

All of our business bank accounts get a green rating on https://bank.green/, i.e. they are banks that do not hold work with, nor invest in, fossil fuel companies.
Our company directors have moved their pensions into ESG certified portfolios.

We are sharing our Green Pledge with our main suppliers, and asking them to share their Green Pledges with us.

Our consultants are building a list of the #littlegreenthings they are personally doing:
