Saul D Humphrey LLP has measured the organisational GHG emissions from the Consultancy’s formation in 2019. Every year the organisational emissions across Scope 1, 2 and 3 have been reduced and today the Partnership can boast the emissions have been reduced by over 90% from the original benchmark. The principal reductions in Partnership emissions have been secured by relocating into a BREEAM “Excellent” (target) well-insulated, home-office with an air source heat pump and 100% renewable energy. Switching to an Electric Vehicle, using public transport and avoiding all flights. Each year’s residual emissions are also offset to achieve net zero ²⁹ organisational emissions. The last financial year’s emissions were offset with the purchase of verified carbon reduction projects and the planting in the United Kingdom of trees, all certified by Carbon Footprint - This is Helen’s area of expertise – all things numbers: from accounts to carbon; off-sets to donations. All emissions are reported via Society for the Environment’s “Pledge to Net Zero” and SME Climate Hub all aligned to “Race to Zero”. 8.1. Carbon Footprint
