We’re proud to be certified CarbonNeutral® for our offices, data centres and business travel. Where possible, we use renewable energy to avoid emissions of greenhouse gases – and we offset the emissions that we cannot avoid by sponsoring clean energy programmes - renewable energy plants in India, for example.
We manage our environmental impacts using an Environmental Management System (EMS) certified to ISO14001:2015.
We recognise the global challenges we all face with climate change. Two years ago, we set ourselves targets for reducing our emissions that were consistent with limiting the rise in average global temperatures to 2 degrees.
While this is a good target, we knew we could do more. Therefore, we have just committed ourselves to the reductions required to limit the rise to 1.5 degrees.
So far we have:
We reduce, reuse and recycle. This helps us decrease the natural resources we use and the emissions we produce, while conserving energy and landfill space. Our zero-waste-to-landfill and single-use plastic campaigns ensure that our company and our employees are aware of the importance of waste disposal and the effects that it has on the environment.
The CDP rewards the Group for its action in the fight against climate change.
The CDP rating is the international benchmark for corporate environmental transparency.
Inclusion in the "A List" for the fourth consecutive year rewards the company for pursuing an ambitious environmental sustainability programme as part of its wider Corporate Responsibility strategy and making climate action "business as usual" in its operations, supply chain and services to clients.
Our triple CarbonNeutral® certifications – in office space, data centres and business travel - make the GHG emissions from Sopra Steria’s services net zero.
We congratulate Sopra Steria on having its target approved and demonstrating that it takes a forward-thinking approach to business. It joins some of the world’s leading companies in recognising that taking action now to cut emissions is the best way to future-proof growth in the transition to the low-carbon economy.Senior Advisor on Climate and Business for WWF and Leader of the Science Based Targets initiative

Words and pictures are not enough to describe today, I have been privileged to witness something very special indeed.
On Wednesday Kim and I had an early start; our taxi took us to the airport at 5am, so we were both up at 4am – 11.30pm UK time!
Today was a very emotional day for both Kim and myself; we visited the Shri Ghanshyam Sharma Memorial High School, Uttar Pradesh. One of the schools supported by Sopra Steria.
