Our Carbon Reduction Plan Is Here
We are happy to announce the publication of our 2026 Carbon Reduction Plan, which highlights our efforts to reduce our environmental impact and carbon emissions. Our carbon reduction plan also outlines our roadmap to Net-Zero and how we plan to achieve this goal by 2050.
Headline Results
This years results have demonstrated tangible progress across the business:
- Gas emissions have dropped down 56% from the previous year, following a full optimisation of the office heating system.
- Vehicle emissions have dropped down 32% due to the increase of hybrid working and sustainable travel initiatives.
- Supply chain emissions have dropped 54% from baseline, through the use of ISO 14040 certified, local suppliers.
- Scope 2 emissions have reached zero. b&m’s electricity has come from 100% renewable sources since switching in 2022, confirmed by Opus energy and reconfirmed by EDF Energy.
Our Targets
We have targets in place around a clear set of commitments:
- Hitting Net Zero by 2050, in line with the 2019 Amendment to the Climate Change Act 2008.
- Halving Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2030, in line with Pillar 1 of thee 1.5°C Business Playbook
- 1.25%-3% emissions reduction target for this reporting year alone.
Putting the Plan Into Practice
Our commitment isn’t confined to internal operations. We ensure that we bring sustainable thinking to its clients work, including on project’s with the Port of London Authority and Brighton & Hove City Council, demonstrating that low-carbon outcomes are achievable across the built environment.
Progress against the plan is tracked and reported annually by b&m’s Carbon Reduction Lead, Craig Nimmo, supported by the our Sustainability Team, with full transparency built into the process.
