To safeguard a sustainable future, it is essential to balance economic growth with social and environmental development. At Arup, we feel a strong responsibility to contribute to this transition. Our fundamental aim, as established in Ove Arup’s Key Speech, is to serve society and deliver meaningful work for a more sustainable built environment. As a firm consisting of 18,000 engineers, designers, advisors and specialists working across 34 countries, we’ve adopted a series of ambitious carbon reduction targets aligned with our global net zero carbon strategy that will take the firm to carbon-neutrality in 2030.
Measuring and reporting of the carbon footprint of our organisation is a fundamental first step in our action cycle. Our footprint is reported every year in accordance with the GHG-protocol, and as to comply with our CO2 Performance Ladder level 5.
