BRE Climate Pledge for COP21 - halving our impact by 2020


25/11/2015

The following pledge and targets form the basis for the BRE S Plan 2020, to deliver real and measurable improvements within our business and reduce our major impacts, in support of the 2015 Paris Climate Conference. 

All targets are based on a 2010 baseline.

BRE Group pledges to halve its impact by 2020. We will achieve this in the following ways: 

BRE-SPlan-CO2 

By 2020, we will halve our CO2e emissions associated with the energy consumed (electricity and natural gas use) on the BRE Garston site.
 BRE-SPlan-Waste

By 2020, we will halve the amount of unsegregated non-recyclable waste produced at BRE Garston site, and continue to send zero non-hazardous waste to landfill.
 BRE-SPlan-Travel

By 2020, we will halve associated CO2 emissions from BRE staff travel to work.
BRE-SPlan-Water 

By 2020, we will halve our water use on the BRE Garston site.
 BRE-SPlan-Community

By 2020, we will deliver face to face teaching on climate change and sustainability to 19,000 school children through BRE’s Sustainable Development Programme for Schools.
