Our environment
Stagecoach Group has launched a new sustainability strategy covering the five years to 30 April 2019.
It follows a 30% reduction in Stagecoach Group’s carbon intensity since 2007/08 and the achievement of previous targets 12 months ahead of schedule.
By April 2019, the Group is aiming to:
- reduce buildings carbon emissions by 7%
- cut like-for-like fleet transport carbon emissions by 2%
- lower water consumption by 9%
- achieve a waste recycling rate of 83%
The Group has already been awarded the Carbon Trust Standard for measuring, managing and reducing its global carbon footprint, becoming the first public transport operator to have its boundaries certified outside of Europe.
A copy of the Group’s sustainability strategy and further information about our initiatives and performance is available at http://www.stagecoach.com/sustainability.aspx
Part of the Group’s approach to sustainability is the ongoing review of its plans, performance and targets.
Policy information and annual performance data is provided on the Group’s website.
Stagecoach also makes an annual submission to the Carbon Disclosure Project (“CDP”), an organisation focused on carbon disclosure which collates environmental information and works with thousands of companies and investors to tackle climate change.
