Proving progress through transparency
At Causeway, we believe sustainability should be proven, not promised. Our annual carbon reporting gives customers, partners and investors a transparent view of our progress – showing how every commitment is backed by data, verification and action.
Our reports follow the Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Protocol and are independently assured through the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and our verification partner, South Pole. This ensures our data is credible, consistent and aligned with international standards – so the same level of rigour we build into our technology underpins our own operations too.

Our FY24 baseline and targets
In October 2025, the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) validated Causeway’s near-term greenhouse gas reduction targets, confirming we are aligned with the 1.5 °C pathway of the Paris Agreement.

How we report
Causeway’s carbon reporting process is designed for accuracy and transparency at every stage.
Our FY24 baseline will be published in February 2026, providing a clear reference point for progress against our SBTi-validated pathway.
Boundary definition
Covers all Causeway operations and major supply-chain activities under our operational control.
Data integrity
Using verified activity data across energy, travel, procurement and waste. aligned to the GHG Protocol.
Emission factors
Based on UK Government (DEFRA / BEIS) datasets, updated annually.
Independent verification
Internally reviewed by our Sustainability Steering Committee, partner, South Pole, and independently validated through the SBTi.
Annual publication
Aligned with our financial year and Sustainability governance cycle.

What drives our reductions
We are taking direct action across every area of our business to reduce emissions:
Renewable energy
Aiming for 100% renewable electricity in our Head Office by 2026, while working with landlords to expand renewable supply across leased sites.
Fleet and travel efficiency
Cutting mileage and introducing low-emission vehicle options.
Zero waste to landfill
Achieved through circular-economy initiatives by 2027.
Supplier engagement
Encouraging and supporting vendors to set their own science-based targets.
Data transparency
Improving consistency and visibility across our supply chain each year.
From offsetting to net-zero progress
Causeway currently compensates for residual emissions through verified offset projects while continuing to reduce emissions across our operations in line with our SBTi-validated near-term science-based targets.
Our focus is on achieving genuine, measurable reductions across Scopes 1, 2 and 3. We are working towards achieving net-zero operations by 2028 through direct emission reductions, in line with the ambition and principles of the SBTi Net-Zero Standard. Our validated targets currently cover the near-term period to 2032.
