Embedding good practice
Following the publication of the Banks first Carbon Management Plan, Craig Love, the Bank’s Associate Director of Climate Impact, discusses our approach to carbon management and embedding good practice across our operations and investments.
Ambition
At the Bank, we are driven by ambition around climate change and supporting Scotland’s just transition to net zero by 2045. This target is at the core of what we do, as one of our three missions aimed at tackling the grand challenges facing Scotland.
We want to be a leader in this space and over the course of the last year, we have been focused on efforts to deliver that ambition. This includes working with our portfolio, other financial institutions and public bodies to help them on their own climate journey. We have also supported the work of academia, the third sector and Scottish Government, through the development of climate related proposals, studies, guidance and programs.
Along with supporting others, we also need to contribute to Scotland’s emissions reductions targets.
