“Man Group’s offsetting strategy has actually set a new trend by going not just carbon neutral but carbon positive.”
Steve Howard
CEO, The Climate Group
The °Climate Group congratulates Man Group on extending the frontier in corporate carbon management. Their carbon programme follows best practice by transparently reporting emissions, reducing these emissions internally, purchasing renewable energy electricity and then offsetting using high quality offsets. Their offsetting strategy has actually set a new trend by going not just carbon neutral but carbon positive.
Man Group’s comprehensive emissions reduction strategy not only reduces emissions across its operations, but addresses particularly specific areas where it can have the greatest impact: throughout its supply chain, amongst its employees (and their families) and with consumers and peers. The combination of face to face discussions, educational tools and incentives has created an innovative but practical employee engagement campaign.
The °Climate Group publications ‘Carbon Down Profits Up’ and ‘In the Black’ demonstrate that such a comprehensive carbon programme will provide Man Group with a competitive edge and support the growth of the low carbon economy.
We recommend Man Group’s programme as a case study for peers in this sector.
