Tackling Climate Change

Our pledge to achieve carbon neutrality and net zero reflects our commitment to a robust ESG sustainability strategy.

Our Value: we do what is right

We deliver innovative ways to mitigate environmental impacts and enhance the resiliency of the communities and clients we serve. And we’re committed to conducting our business in a similar way. In 2022, we delivered on our promise to achieve operational carbon neutrality, a key step in our phased process to achieve science-based, operational net zero. 

  • 1.5°C - Validated emissions reduction target through Science Based Targets initiative
  • 47% - Reduced absolute Scope 1 and 2 (market-based) emissions by 47% in 2022
  • 60% - Approximately 60% of our 2022 gross revenue aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals

We care about the environment in which we live and work

We recognise the impact we can have as a product of what we do, through our corporate actions, the projects and solutions we deliver, and through our thought leadership. Our aim is to fully integrate low carbon thinking and management throughout our business, and to drive continuous improvement and innovation over the longer term. We are continually challenging how we can create better solutions with enhanced environmental benefits, that align with project, client and community outcomes.



Coastal Resilience

When the Caol and Lochyside communities needed flood protection infrastructure, we helped develop a flood protection scheme that would protect them against 200-year floods from sea level rise or surface water flooding.



Ecosystem Restoration

Helping communities protect, restore, monitor and respond to biodiversity loss, climate change, and environmental degradation; supporting solutions that integrate the natural and built environments.



Smart Cities and Urban Places

Using technology and planning to lower carbon and relieve pressure on urban cities. Improving energy and resource security and conservation, health and well-being, accessibility and smart mobility, and building a sense of place.
