Environmental sustainability

We have begun an initiative to monitor how much plastic is produced by the Glasgow office, and implemented a Plastic Policy to lessen our waste production with particular focus on single-use plastics. A plastic-free office and accompanying sustainable culture will help us to reduce carbon emissions; of greatest importance is the elimination of single-use plastics
