The professional services industry can serve as an interesting platform for combating our changing climate. First, professional services organisations must demonstrate expertise to clients that are increasingly concerned with their environmental impact. Second, services companies can use this expertise to push and influence their stakeholders into the bold action required to achieve our global climate goals.
As part of the Planet Mark certification, RPS Consulting Services Newark has committed to making a year-on-year reduction.
