Climate Change And Sustainability Report

Overview

The report presents a proposed 30-year transformation for UK Defence, centred on reaching net zero Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2050 while improving operational resilience and climate-security leadership. It identifies a reported emissions position of 783,000 tCO2e for GGC-covered estate emissions, increasing to an indicative 3.8mt CO2e when additional factors such as equipment, food, waste, water, accommodation and travel are considered. The report also establishes the Climate Change and Sustainability Implementation Group and describes the Defence Safety and Environment Committee's oversight role. Sustainability priorities extend across the estate, procurement, energy, fuels, data, biodiversity and research.
