Lockton Companies LLP Environment Report 2021-22

Analysis Methodology For this year there has been no change from the previously adopted methodology. We are me suring and reporting our emissions based on a period that aligns with our financial year and using an external third party, Carbon Footprint to assist. We are taking our raw data and using GHG protocol and Defra guidelines, and using the latest metrics from BEIS, to calculate our CO2e. All results then validated to ISO14064-3. Emissions totals are calculated by multiplying activity data (i.e. electricity consumption) with the appropriate emissions factor (i.e. UK electricity). Three emission scopes are set down in the GHG protocol and are detailed below: Scope 1: Direct emissions Occur from sources that are owned or controlled by Lockton. Examples: Fuel combustion, Gas burnt. Scope 2: Electricity indirect emissions GHG emissions from the generation of purchased electricity consumed by Lockton (using both location and market based approach) Scope 3: Other indirect emissions An optional reporting category for all other indirect emissions that are a consequence of our activities. These occur from sources not owned or controlled by the company. Examples: electricity transmission & distribution losses, employee business travel, waste etc.

The combined scope 1 emissions for the 2012-22 reporting year are 7.28 CO2e. This 88% reduction from 2020-21 is due to an office relocation in Edinburgh, which meant we ceased using gas. Our single company car use continued over the year and with no significant refrigerant gas losses then total this year is much lower than previous report.
