Ecosurety commits to be net zero before 2030

Commitment demonstrates the need to join global climate action and go beyond existing activities that improve recycling.

Ecosurety is publicly committing today to accelerate the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and carbon impacts related to its wider business operations, to achieve net zero before 2030. The carbon reduction commitment is 20 years ahead of the 2050 targets set in the Paris Agreement, and sees Ecosurety join an accelerated climate action effort championed by the global B Corp community.

Ecosurety became a certified B Corp in April 2020 with a legal commitment to conduct business with consideration for the environment and all stakeholders, not just shareholders, and a belief that all business ought to be conducted as if people and place matter.

Everyone must play their part

For many years Ecosurety has been committed to improving UK recycling through numerous campaigns and projects that go far beyond the core business of producer responsibility compliance, including the £1m Ecosurety Exploration Fund that launched in 2019.

However, recognition that this activity is not enough within the context of the climate crisis has led to a commitment that any future actions as a business must not be limited to improving recycling alone - everyone must play their part toward achieving net zero.
