SUSTAINABILITY AT LTS GLOBAL SOLUTIONS
Making positive contributions to reducing our emissions is something that is continually top of mind at LTS Global Solutions and an ethos which we look to apply to every aspect of our operation.
Planet Mark Certification
We’re proud that we have achieved the Planet Mark Business Certification, furthering our commitment to reduce our impact on the environment and society. This is an incredible achievement involving the entire business.
The Planet Mark Business Certification is an internationally recognised sustainability certification for all organisations acknowledging continuous progress, encouraging action and building an empowered community of like-minded individuals.
In order to achieve this sustainability certification, we’ve followed a robust three-step process: Measuring our impact, engaging everyone in the business and communicating our progress. We have measured our own carbon footprint and will continue to take responsibility of our carbon emissions to have a positive impact on planet and society. We are also contributing to the UN SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) as we believe that it’s important, more than ever, to do more good and create a sustainable future.
Through the Planet Mark Business Certification, we will continue measuring and reducing our carbon emissions across Scopes 1, 2 and core elements of Scope 3 to ensure that we are embedding sustainability into our business practices.
We are committed to reducing our carbon emissions to help create a planet that is fit for us and future generations.
