We are thrilled to announce that MEB Design has successfully completed our first carbon audit. This achievement marks a significant milestone in our commitment to sustainability and environmental responsibility. It follows the launch of our Net Zero Carbon Action Plan in 2024, which outlines our strategic approach to reducing our carbon footprint and promoting sustainable practices within our operations.
To facilitate this important initiative, we have partnered with Climate Essentials. We are utilising their Carbon Management System, which allows us to record, review, and analyse our Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions. This system provides valuable insights into our environmental impact. By understanding our emissions across all scopes, we can identify key areas for improvement and implement effective strategies to reduce our carbon footprint.
We are proud to report that our carbon footprint has decreased by an impressive 27% between 2023 and 2024. Climate Essentials have confirmed we have 96-98% lower emissions than the average business in 2024. This low impact and reduction reflects the hard work and dedication of our team, as well as the changes in the events we host each year. We recognise that much work remains, and we remain focused on further reducing our emissions in the coming years.
In addition to minimising emissions, we are committed to offsetting our environmental impact. We believe that taking responsibility for our carbon footprint is essential for contributing to a healthier planet. Stay tuned for more updates on offsetting measures and our sustainability journey. We strive to create a positive impact on the environment and contribute to a more sustainable future for all.
