With COP 26 happening right on our doorstep, at Logos we are reflecting on our impact on the environment and what we can do to change.
From countries, large organisations and individuals, we can all play our part in tackling climate change, and one way to do this is by going net zero.
The National Grid’s definition of net zero is “the balance between the amount of greenhouse gas produced and the amount removed from the atmosphere”. This means making sure what we consume is balanced by what we give back.
Being aware of our contribution is the first step in the journey to being Net Zero. Understanding the positive and negative environmental impacts we make to then improve our working practices to minimise the negative impacts.
By calculating our carbon emissions across all areas of the business, Logos will be able to identify the high priority areas and take action to become net zero. Working through a management plan to improve our energy efficiency, carbon generation and transportation efficiency, will play a big role in reducing our impact.
Having a clearly outlined strategy with aims and objectives based on our impact will allow Logos to identify when targets are being met. A strategy to achieve Net Zero will be updated continually as we make progress towards our goal.
For example, if we want to reduce the amount of water we use in the workplace, to make this quantifiable and achievable, we set a target that we can try to meet. Instead of “reducing the amount of water used” the target can be “reduce water usage by 15%” or “10L per each employee”. This target then becomes reachable as there is a quantified number being set and it involves everyone in the business to take part.
