The UKs ambitious commitment to achieving Net Zero by 2050 is a cornerstone of its environmental policy. Despite this, Prime Minister Rishi Sunak announced changes to Government policies in September whilst insisting the UK will still be on track to reach its target. Altering the trajectory of these policies makes strategic planning for organisations a challenge but ISO 14001 Environmental Management Standard can help.
Implementing the internationally recognised ISO 14001 can play a key role in the strategic planning of environmental policies. The Standard provides a systematic approach to:
• managing environmental aspects,
• reducing risks,
• optimising resources, and
• demonstrating a commitment to sustainability.
Whilst not specifically aimed at reaching ‘net zero’, the standard helps organisations align their environmental objectives with their broader strategic goals such as reducing their carbon footprint. This ultimately contributes to their long-term success and responsible environmental stewardship.
