At CMP, we believe that every organisation, no matter the size, has a role to play in combating climate change. As a business, we are committed to achieving net zero carbon emissions by 2030.

We are taking meaningful steps to reduce our environmental footprint through the following actions:

Improving our energy efficiency by using low-energy and smart technology
Reducing paper and going digital
Encouraging low-carbon commuting options such as carpooling, electric vehicles and the use of public transport, as well as offering hybrid and remote-working options.

We are committed to measuring our carbon footprint annually and continually improving out practices.

These actions reflect our wider commitment to responsible business and continuous improvement.
