As a first step in our efforts to decarbonise business travel, in 2021 we launched Thoughtful Travel, a campaign that asks our people to think more carefully about business travel, avoiding journeys when they can, and choosing less carbon-intensive forms of transport when travel is unavoidable.
Establish processes and procedures to integrate carbon reduction into all stages of the property lifecycle. This year we adopted our Future Workplace principles, enabling us to reduce the environmental footprint of many of our offices. Energy efficient offices Improving the energy efficiency of our offices is a key part of our decarbonisation strategy.
We’re doing this in three ways: by increasing energy efficiency in our existing office buildings, moving offices to more energy-efficient buildings, and considering energy optimisation in every aspect of moving into a new building, including office fit-outs. Moving to renewables We’re aiming for our UK and European offices to use 100% renewable electricity by 2025, and for all remaining offices to use 100% renewable electricity by 2030. These targets are in line with our Science-based Carbon Reduction Target.
