This is Locus Management Solutions’ first year of business carbon footprint reporting and Planet Mark certification. Since certifying, the company has set a target to reduce emissions by 5% annually.
Locus Management Solutions’ total carbon footprint in the year ending March 2021 was 9.8 tCO2e. Locus Management Solutions’ total carbon per employee in the year prior to March 2021 was 1.4 tCO2e.
Over the next year, the company will be working towards reducing its carbon emissions and sharing its journey with its community to inspire others. By being more strategic about its environmental responsibility, the firm will be able to significantly increase its positive impact and hope to encourage continual improvements within its community.

Locus Management Solutions has made commitments beyond its annual carbon reduction target. The organisation is protecting an acre of rainforest in Peru through a collaboration with conservation charity Cool Earth. Locus Management Solutions is also committed to engaging its stakeholders in its sustainability journey.
Business management and consultancies can reap the benefits from sustainable action. As well as helping them stand out among their competitors, a strong sustainability policy will assist not only their own organisation but help embed climate-friendly practice among the organisation’s client base.
As part of the Planet Mark certification, Locus Management Solutions has committed to making a year-on-year reduction.
