A sustainable approach to parking Businesses need to do everything they can to support the environment and take steps to be greener and more sustainable. Parkingeye is no exception. With our business being focused on car parks and supporting our clients and their goals, we need to take every step we can to reduce emissions and build a comprehensive Net Zero strategy. Download our Sustainability Report Home > Parkingeye Sustainability Environmental, Social and Corporate Governance We’re aiming to reach Net Zero by 2050; this will be a long-term strategic endeavour that touches every aspect of our business. From how we power our offices and travel, to choices of packaging and encouraging greener ways of thinking from our staff, there are a multitude of different initiatives we need to undertake to reduce our carbon and greenhouse gas emissions. Download our carbon footprint statement Greenhouse gas emissions fall into three distinct areas referred to as scopes Scope 1: direct emissions arising from operations within a company’s direct control, including natural gas, onsite fuels, and vehicles owned or operated by the company. Scope 2: emissions consist of those generated indirectly by the company, during the generation of purchased electricity, heat, or steam utilised by the company. Scope 3: emissions derive from activities beyond the company’s direct operational control, resulting as a by-product of its operations. We have measured our emissions and can show that we are already aware of the impact of our business across Scope 1, 2 and 3. The biggest area for reduction and focus is within Scope 3 emissions. Reporting Year Percentage Change from 2019 to 2021 2019 2021 Scope 1 Emissions (tCO2e) 644.48 423.37 -34.31% Scope 2 Emissions (tCO2e) 79.27 77.86 -1.78% Scope 3 Emissions (tCO2e) 9,276.51 5,405.50 -41.73% Total Emissions (tCO2e) 10,000.25 5,906.72 -40.93% To support our clients we already have a significant number of initiatives that we are deploying to tackle our carbon footprint and that of the communities in which our clients are located.
