Carbon Reduction Plan
Scribetech UK's commitment, emissions baseline and pathway to Net Zero by 2040.
Commitment to Achieving Net Zero by 2040
Scribetech is fully committed to achieving Net Zero carbon emissions by 2040 in line with our sustainability goals and in compliance with the UK Government's standards outlined in PPN 06/21. We are dedicated to taking action today to reduce our carbon footprint and align with the global push for a sustainable future.
Our 2023 emissions baseline.
We have calculated our current carbon emissions for the baseline year 2023.
Since our business operates remotely and we do not own company vehicles, we have no direct emissions under Scope 1 and Scope 2. Our carbon footprint is predominantly influenced by Scope 3 emissions, including business travel, employee commuting, and purchased goods and services.
A significant portion of these emissions are from our cloud service providers associated with data storage and processing.
Scope 3 reduction pathway
Measured against the 2023 baseline
A measured pathway to Net Zero.
We have set our baseline year as 2023 and aim to reduce our Scope 3 emissions by 15% by 2025, 40% by 2030, and achieve Net Zero by 2040.
Action across our operations.
We have implemented the following carbon reduction initiatives to meet our targets.
Remote working
As a fully remote business, we have minimised our reliance on office spaces and commuting, reducing overall energy consumption and travel emissions.
Business travel
We are committed to further reducing business travel emissions by prioritising virtual meetings and, where travel is necessary, using sustainable transport options.
Supply chain engagement
We are working closely with our suppliers to reduce emissions associated with the production and delivery of goods and services we procure.
Cloud provider emissions reduction
We use carbon-reduction tools provided by our cloud providers to monitor and reduce emissions. This includes optimising data usage and storage and collaborating with providers committed to using renewable energy.
Annual emissions tracking using Trace
We use Trace to track and report our carbon emissions annually, ensuring transparency and accountability in our progress toward Net Zero.
Employee engagement and workshops
Alongside encouraging sustainable practices in home offices, we regularly hold sustainability workshops to engage employees and provide training on carbon reduction strategies.
