Since 2011, Bain & Company has reduced Scope 1 & 2 direct emissions by 68 percent, by converting to renewable electricity, improving the energy efficiency of its office spaces, and finding ways to reduce waste from its operations. The firm has set a goal to achieve a 90 percent reduction in emissions by 2040.
To achieve CarbonNeutral status, Bain & Company works with Natural Capital Partners and follows The CarbonNeutral Protocol which requires a rigorous and independent assessment of seven different greenhouse gas emissions, coupled with an offset-inclusive emissions reduction program.
