Steer is committed to successfully operating a Net Zero Carbon company by 2025. We will be Carbon Neutral by 2022, Net Zero Carbon by 2025 and Near Zero by 2030, through less than 50% offsetting, and only with offsetting that is local to our operations, and that is consistent with our social values.

In line with our values, we take our responsibility to the environment seriously and as such, our approach to managing our environmental impact covers four core principles:

  • To proactively manage and minimise our environmental impacts.
  • To comply with local environmental legal requirements.
  • To encourage participation of positive environmental practices.
  • To continually monitor and improve our environmental performance.

Our Actions are delivered through a suite of Local Environmental Actions Plans (LEAPs) which look to create a global impact through targeted and office-specific local action planning. These actions include:

  • Locating our offices in central locations, that are well served by public transport.
  • No provision of car parking at our offices.
  • Providing employees access to bike purchase schemes where available.
  • A carbon levy on our business travel
  • Travel to meetings on foot, by cycle, public transport or car club car to reduce transport impact.
  • Deployment of local staff to projects to minimise the need to travel.
  • Participating in the local circular economy, regularly donating office furniture, and cared for equipment to local schools’ charities and social enterprises.
  • Continuous improvement of the environmental standards of our offices, including reduced emissions and improved recycling, each lease renewal

Many of our client commissions relate to reducing the negative impacts of travel for the population and helping our clients reduce their environmental impacts. We are at the forefront of the environmental debate, working with our clients to formulate no-nonsense solutions, to understand impacts, raise awareness and influence behaviours.
