Greener living at work

It makes good business sense to make your business as sustainable as possible. Below you’ll find links to a range of information and advice to help your organisation on it’s way to a greener life.

 

As well as mitigating against the release of future emissions, it’s important that businesses also consider the impacts that past emissions are causing on our climate. For example, it’s predicted that we will see an increase in extreme weather events such as flooding, drought and heat waves which could damage your premises, disrupt logistics and affect your bottom line. 

 

By thinking ahead you can investigate how these changes might affect your operations and what you can do to adapt and minimise risk and utilise any opportunities it may bring. For more information about the risks and opportunities for your business visit the UK Climate Impacts Programme business (external link) website.

 

Getting to work…

  • Use public transport: Traveline (external link) is a free journey planner providing journey information for all modes of public transport.
