- Schulke UK baseline year is 2021
- Our global emissions targets are covered across combined scope 1 + 2 and scope 3
- The global near term target of 1.5°C is aligned with and validated by Science Based Target Iniative (SBTi)
- Secured a gold score with Ecovadis* in 2023

We can project that carbon emissions will decrease over the next five years by around 5% by 2028.
Carbon Reduction Projects
