We have a transparent approach to climate change activities
We have a transparent approach to climate change activities
We report our performance transparently, and have completed the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) for the last five years. In 2011, our total carbon footprint was 91,318 tonnes CO2eq, an increase of 13% in line with the growth of the Group.
Our carbon footprint for our India operations remained relatively stable, however, the large number of acquisitions made in 2011 meant that our UK office footprint increased by nearly 20%. Many of these new offices were not as carbon efficient as our existing offices. We will be working closely with facilities managers at these sites to reduce emissions over the next year.
