Glossary:
Corporate Sustainability: Building out a
future which does not deplete resources and create a long term approach
for future generations to flourish.
Net Zero: Cutting greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) of a company, to as close to zero as possible, with any remaining emissions re-absorbed from the atmosphere
Offsetting: Buying credible carbon credits
to absorb the carbon that we have not
managed to reduce zero. A carbon offset is a reduction in emissions of GHG made to
compensate for emissions made
elsewhere and should be a last resort for
hard-to-remove emissions.
