Our commitment
It starts with us, that’s why on top of our financial responsibilities to our clients, as a company we have committed to:
- eliminate all feasible single-use plastics in our buildings
- 100% renewable energy in our buildings
- cut our greenhouse gas emissions from energy use by 50% by 2030
We want to go further though, and while we continue to reduce, we have also pledged to offset our entire carbon footprint to become carbon neutral in 2020.
