Reducing our emissions
We believe reducing carbon emissions is the first and most important step in any climate action plan.
At Barclays, our UK carbon footprint comprises 80 per cent energy use and 20 per cent business travel. Improving our energy efficiency and reducing our business travel are high priorities.
Reducing emissions from technology
Barclays aims to introduce technology throughout the business which is both commercially and environmentally responsible. Through supplier partnerships and innovative products, the process is underway.
Reducing emissions through energy efficiency
Barclays is investing in improving energy efficiency throughout the business. The benefits are two-fold: reducing wasted energy not only yields environmental benefits it also results in cost savings through reduced energy use.
Reducing emissions from transport
Barclays is a growing, global organisation and as a result our emissions from travel are increasing. We are working to reduce emissions from flights and car travel.
