Our carbon footprint

We collect and analyse a vast amount of data as part of managing our environmental impact but not all of this is included in our carbon footprint.

To provide clarity on our carbon footprint boundaries, the diagrams below summarise the data included in our reporting, the emissions we offset and any exclusions from our calculations. We have also highlighted new items, included for the first time in our report of 2010 performance.

We are now reporting on and offsetting the operational emissions for Solus, our motor accident repair network.

Through a project with the United Nations Financial Industry Environment Programme Climate Change Working Group, we are investigating the best methodology in understanding the carbon intensity of investment funds. We are progressing some separate work on the carbon intensity of our supply chain and hope to report further on both these areas next year.
