Today marks a pivotal moment in the Useful Simple Trust’s sustainability journey. After years of dedicated work and commitment to our Science Based Targets, we are proud to publicly launch our Climate Transition Action Plan (CTAP).
This CTAP is a blueprint for transforming climate goals into measurable action – providing transparency on our carbon context, identifying our emission hotspots, and outlining our target pathway with specific actions for 2026.
Why This Matters
Whilst we recognise that our greatest impact is through our project work, we believe that every organisation has a responsibility to combat climate change. For us, reducing our impact aligns with who we are as a business; our Ethos and our status as B Corp, Social Enterprise, and Employee Benefit Trust.
The Trust’s four Impact Strands – Get Set Zero, Work for Good, Restore and Adapt, and More with Less – knit together the projects and services our brands provide to clients. Our CTAP focuses on accelerated action towards net zero carbon in line with Get Set Zero, and provides a near-term roadmap aligned with the critical 1.5°C pathway following guidance from the We Mean Business Coalition.
