At thecoachcompany.co.uk, we believe in offering excellent and efficient coach travel services. As we navigate towards the future, it's clear that our responsibility extends to incorporating sustainable practices in our operations. That's why we're excited to share our commitment to achieving Net-Zero emissions.
Ongoing Carbon Footprint Assessments: We are partnering with environmental consultants to accurately map our carbon footprint. This baseline will help monitor our progress towards our net-zero goal.
Ambitious Emission Goals: We're setting a robust target date to reach net-zero emissions across all our functions, aligning with national and international climate goals.
Prioritising Sustainable Subcontractors: We are actively encouraging our subcontractors to upgrade to eco-friendly vehicles. We will rank these suppliers higher and allocate more work to them, actively promoting the transition to greener alternatives.
Offering Sustainable Choices for Clients: We will begin providing quotes for electric vehicles alongside our standard vehicles, giving our clients the opportunity to consciously choose environmentally-friendly travel options.
Carbon Reduction Initiatives: We are identifying and implementing improvements across our operations. Focused on vehicle maintenance, waste reduction, fuel efficiency, and energy consumption in our premises, these initiatives will help us reduce our carbon output.
Investing in Renewable Energy Sources: We are exploring renewable energy sources and considering the potential for producing our own energy through solar panel installation at our offices and depots to further reduce our carbon footprint.
Carbon Offsetting Initiatives: For residual emissions, we're investing in carbon offset initiatives such as community-oriented renewable energy projects. Furthermore, we'll partner with services like ‘Plant a Tree’, facilitating our clients to contribute towards greener endeavours, making each journey with us a step towards a sustainable future.
Engaging and Empowering Our People: Our teams are fundamental to this mission, and we're committed to training and equipping them to be active participants in this initiative.
Continuous Learning and Improvement: We're committed to constantly revisiting our strategy. Embracing new technologies, scientific findings, or policy adjustments is crucial in our journey towards sustainability. Our Net-Zero strategy is reviewed yearly to identify opportunities for new elements and review ongoing efforts.
We are thrilled about this journey towards a sustainable future for coach travel and invite you to join us in this mission. Thank you for continually choosing thecoachcompany.com, and we look forward to catering to your travelling needs in a greener way.
