Our Operational Impact

As a firm, we have been on a journey to minimize our impact on the environment since 2005. We have held ourselves accountable and set challenging goals, ensuring that our workplaces and facilities utilize smart, sustainable solutions. In addition to seeking LEED certification for all new buildings, we certify all our operationally controlled workplaces to ISO 14001, and all our onsite events to ISO 20121 and we source renewable electricity equivalent to 100% of our global consumption.
 

Our 2025 goals aim to further improve our performance across a range of areas, including energy management and direct renewable electricity sourcing.

We have been carbon neutral across our operations and business travel since 2015.  In 2021, we expanded our operational carbon neutrality commitment with a goal to achieve net zero carbon emissions in our operations and supply chain by 2030.
 

Since then, we have revised our carbon accounting methodology, which includes leveraging a third-party technology solution, and have conducted a detailed assessment across our footprint to better understand key emission sources. Our measurement approach incorporates the latest climate science, increases the accuracy of our reported emissions, and enables the integration of more advanced carbon calculations. We are using this technology to help us identify the most impactful emissions reduction opportunities across all scopes, including Scope 3 supply chain emissions, which we seek to reduce in partnership with our vendors.

As we manage our operations sustainably, we seek to also develop an inclusive and responsible supply chain that embodies these same commitments. We look for vendors who share our commitment to environmental stewardship, labor and human rights accords, ethical business practices and diversity and inclusion.

In addition to our environmental efforts, we recognize the importance of engaging with local communities where we live, work and operate.  As a firm, we are committed to fostering relationships with the local community and addressing social issues in our neighborhoods.

Since the publication of our first Environmental Policy Framework in 2005, we have been on a journey to minimize our impact on the environment. We are dedicated to accelerating climate transition and driving inclusive economic growth, integrating these two imperatives into how we manage our firm and our work with vendors.
