Global Green Initiative

  • Since 2010, we have been a member of a global KPMG initiative that undertakes to reduce the carbon footprint of the KPMG global network of member advisory firms by 15% by 2015.
  • We monitor our carbon footprint on a regular basis and continuously manage to minimise the impact of our undertakings on the environment.
  • Between 2012 and 2013 we managed to reduce our carbon footprint per employee by 12%. Between 2013 and 2014 we managed to reduce our carbon footprint per employee by 14%.

Considering the nature of our business, the areas we need to monitor primarily include waste (paper consumption) and business travel. Indicators for both aspects are shown in the tables below. [ More ]
