• We regularly score our supply based on energy consumption and remove the most energy intensive supply as part of BAU operations

• Our understanding of energy consumption by format enables us to optimise media plans towards the lowest intensity formats, whilst balancing overall media performance

• We’ve implemented a streamable video product. This reduces energy consumption within the data transfer process as only viewed content is transferred

• Our offices operate on 100% renewable energy supply

• We do not work with brands who are reliant on sales of fossil fuels

Scope 1, Scope 2, Scope 3 Copy answer

To reduce our S1 and S2 emissions we are focused on switching 100% of our fleet vehicles to be EV or low emission by 2030 and using renewable energy in our offices. We have implemented energy saving initiatives such as motion sensor lighting. We committed to migrating our data centres fully to the cloud and have already achieved this. We remain committed to reducing overall electricity use by 50% by 2030, and procure 100% renewable for our remaining needs. Our S3 emissions are heavily weighted towards purchased goods and services and use of sold goods - we are working with our procurement team to understand the reduction strategies of our top spend suppliers and we are also looking at the vehicles that the group takes on balance sheet to be sold.

Our reduction targets have been validated by the SBTi. Our targets are to reduce S1-S2 by 50% by 2030, reduce S3 by 46.2% over the same timeframe and reduce absolute S1,S2 and S3 by 90% by 2040. We want to minimise our impact on the environment across our own operations and our supply chain, but also use our data, capabilities and voice to influence the automotive industry to support others in the transition to a low carbon economy.

Impact Plus employees can choose to work remotely to cut down emissions generated from commuting and office activities. We also encourage everyone to take public transport or to cycle to work in service of that goal. In the event that travelling is required within cities, public transport is the default option.

Our Offsite in 2023 was ecodesigned to be as friendly to the environment as possible. That entailed:
The use of a eco-responsible site
Exclusively serving vegetarian meals
All long-distance journeys to attend being made by train

Impact Plus’ data servers are hosted in France, and are low carbon electricity intensity in line with Amazon Web Services (AWS) standards.
From 2024, we will require our external vendors to evaluate their own carbon footprints, including scope 3 emissions, in order to refine the evaluation of our own carbon emissions. Copy answer
