GW Highways has achieved carbon neutrality in accordance with PAS 2060:2014. We are committed to reducing emissions, monitoring progress through annual verification. Our Term Services Director, David Gibbins said, ‘We are the only infrastructure business fully accountable for scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions across all our UK operations. While we continue to reduce emissions from our activities, we support the immediate ambitions to accelerate to net zero and have looked at the voluntary carbon market to mitigate our climate impact today’.
The Carbon Trust continues to work with us on this journey, providing expert guidance on corporate climate action. Dominic Burbridge, Director, Climate Risk & Net Zero at the Carbon Trust, says: ‘The work GW Highways has carried out so far to engage their supply chain on carbon reduction highlights the importance of collaboration in reducing the impact of business on the climate.’
We are delighted to announce we are now working with Climate Impact Partners: specialist in carbon market solutions for climate action. Climate Impact Partners sources sustainable infrastructure projects verified to leading international standards that support renewable energy and decrease dependence on fossil fuels. Natalie Taylor, Director of Client Solutions at Climate Impact Partners, explains: ‘Our joined-up approach helps organisations like GW Highways address their environmental impacts through high-quality carbon market solutions that also deliver positive impact for nature and local communities.’
Our journey is far from finished; our goal is to achieve organisational net zero before 2050.
