Sustainability

The PSC exists to create lasting change through improving public services, so sustainability is at the heart of our decision making.  

To play an active role in society’s transition to a sustainable future, The PSC has committed to core sustainability goals.

In 2021, we're pleased that we achieved our first goal of becoming a carbon negative organisation through a portfolio offsetting approach which is focused on offsets that sequester carbon from the atmosphere. We have remained carbon negative every year since. 

To push ourselves further, in April 2024, we agreed new emission reduction targets, which will challenge us to find more sustainable ways of working:

• To reach net zero by 2045/46
• To reduce emissions per FTE by 80% between 2019/20 and 2028/29

Our sustainability team is working with our board to drive lasting sustainability across the public sector through our work with clients, and in the way we work internally.

We are buoyed by our progress to date and will continue to strive to become increasingly sustainable.
