SOME OF THE KEY ISSUES OF OUR SUSTAINABILITY STRATEGY
Monitoring and Minimising Pollution
We use our influence to limit water and land pollution on site and in the wider
environment to the absolute minimum. In order to do this, we must identify
the environmental risks involved with the provision of our services and monitor
our performance.
Waste and Recycling
We have a key objective to minimise the amount of waste for disposal
through a progressive '4R' approach:-
- Reducing the production of waste.
- Reusing materials where possible.
- Recycling as much as possible.
- Recovering energy from waste.
A target has been set for the recycling or reduction of 5% of
in-house waste for the next 12 months.
Conservation of Energy
We have undertaken to reduce consumption of energy and water
by 5% by 2005.
Purchasing
Procurement decisions have a direct influence on how well we
can meet the aims of our Sustainability Strategy, and we recognise
that for it to succeed, the
organisations from whom we buy our services, works, and supplies must share
our commitment to sound environmental performance and improvement.
