We're on a path to
Net Zero

Reducing our greenhouse gas emissions across our entire business and supply chain.

Determined to do more

Being Zen means taking our environmental responsibilities seriously, doing our part to have a positive impact on people and the planet. It's why we're already Carbon Neutral and a proud B Corp business. But we're determined to do more in creating a better world for future generations.

That's why we're aligning to the standards as set out by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi).

From being open on our emissions to continually reducing our carbon footprint, we want to show the industry and the world that there is a better way to do business.

Measuring the right way

Being on a path to Net Zero covers more than just the emissions we're directly responsible for, but also those created throughout our supply chain, like the manufacture and transport of our routers, the electricity needed to use our broadband and the emissions produced by all of our third party suppliers - emissions we don't control, but still have a collective responsibility for. That is why we are measuring the emissions right the way along this chain.

Our commitments

Measure our full carbon footprint

We already measure the emissions produced by our office, data centres, business travel and waste. We're now expanding this measurement to all elements of our supply chain, including the goods and services we buy and distribute, and how our products and services are used by our customers.

Set science-based targets to limit global warming to 1.5°C

Scientists have stated that a 1.5°C increase in average global temperature is the limit to reduce the worst impacts for our planet and its inhabitants. We are committed to ensuring our data is accurate and the targets we put in place can be measured and reported. We have set a near-term target of 50% reduction in Scope 3 emissions by no later than 2030 and a long-term target of 90% reduction by no later than 2040.

Cut our emissions in half by 2028

On our path to Net Zero we are committed to reducing our greenhouse gas emissions (those we can control) by 50% by 2028. We already have initiatives and measurements in place to achieve this.

Offset remaining emissions (<10% of our total) with removal offsets

Any emissions that we are not able to remove will be offset with 'carbon removal' projects, such as tree planting.

A stark assessment of climate change truth, and why we must all act now...

In 2021 our CEO, Paul Stobart, delivered an impactful keynote at tech industry event Comms Vision with a message that can resonate with us all. Paul laid out many uncomfortable facts about climate change that should silence any arguments to the contrary. He demonstrated through the clear evidence of science why we need to act superfast to build a sustainable future. Watch the full keynote below.
