Low Carbon Action Plan
Throughout 2023, we have been working with an external consultancy to focus on expanding our knowledge and reporting in Scope 3, which now covers water and paper usage, waste, business travel, employee commuting and our Upstream transport and distribution.
Our Net Zero goal is aligned with Science Based Targets, with our core short term focus being on reducing emissions from transport, whether that be business, commuting or from our suppliers, to work towards our Net Zero target of 2040 and an interim target of 50% reduction in these areas by 2030.
