Focusing on the environment

Going 100% renewable

In 2019, we committed to procuring 100% renewable energy across our global facilities by 2023, joining the RE100 - a global initiative bringing together businesses committed to 100% renewable energy. In the UK we are proud to have already achieved this goal by adopting 100% renewable energy across our facilities.

Working toward our science-based target

We’re the largest professional services company to have a goal aligning with Science Based Targets Initiative. We aim to reduce absolute greenhouse gas emissions by 11% against 2016 baseline by 2025, including a commitment to reduce scope 1 & 2 emissions by 65%, and 40% per unit of revenue intensity reduction for scope 1, 2 & 3 emissions.

Achieve net-zero emissions by 2025

We’ll focus first on actual reductions in our emissions and will invest in nature-based solutions that will remove carbon from the atmosphere.

Move to zero waste

By 2025, we’ll reuse or recycle all our e-waste and office furniture. We’re committed to eliminating single-use plastics in our locations post-COVID.

Plan for water risk

By 2025, we’ll develop plans to reduce the impact of flooding, drought and water scarcity on our business and our people in high-risk areas.

Creating a truly inclusive workplace
