✅ Reported Environmental Achievements
- Reduced GHG emissions by 4.7% from 2021 to 2022 (6949.84 mtCO2e)
- Reduced energy consumption by 1397 MWh from 2021 to 2022
- Eliminated ~710kg CO2e a year through reduced employee commuting
- Consolidated ~57,000 square feet of office space in the US in 2022, resulting in a direct reduction in energy consumption and GHG emissions
- Reduced overrun material in the manufacturing process from 15% to 3%, resulting in a $1.8 million reduction in material usage annually
- IDL reduced overall water usage and wastewater discharge by over 45%
🎯 Climate & Sustainability Targets
🔜 Short-term
- 100% of hazardous waste to be disposed of in line with local regulations each year
- Understand 2019 waste baseline & set reduction target for 2025
- Ensure that every site is correctly measuring waste to landfill
- Ensure that Ambassador Network provide all sites with guidance and training on locally -relevant and measurable recycling policies
- Each site to conduct audit of Single Use Plastics (SUPs) and identify at least 2 changes
📅 Medium-term
- Increase the proportion of kWh from green energy sources by 20% annually, towards 100%
- Scoping of sites suitable for on-site renewables
- 50% of sites to have 100% green tariff procurement or equivalent offsets
- Reduce scope 1 & 2 GHG emissions by 30%
- Improve energy efficiency (i.e., usage per square meter or per head) by 30%
🔭 Long-term
- Commit to setting a Science Based Scope 1 & 2 reduction target towards Net Zero based on 2019 baseline and most recent measurements.
