We acknowledge and in many cases applaud the various forms of climate change and sustainability goals that government bodies, non-governmental organisations, and businesses have adopted, but the one we set out for ourselves is simple and clear, and with built-in accountability: every engagement we take on will further the fight against climate change. And we will grow our business each year to maximise the number of assignments we can deliver and the impact we will have.

But this means that our clients must be visionaries, strangers to half-hearted gestures and green-washed goals that damage our cause. We and our clients, partnered together, won’t just be keeping up; we’ll be setting the pace, putting cutting-edge technical and strategic advice in the hands of leaders at all levels, in organisations everywhere.
