The state of sustainability in the legal sector
Navigating the path to net zero: download your free guide
The legal profession has the opportunity to drive meaningful change where the world’s sustainability and net-zero ambitions take centre stage. Yet, despite law firms’ evolving ideologies regarding carbon reduction and significant attempts to champion sustainability strategies, Greenarc has discovered that a lack of confidence in making the right decisions, coupled with an ongoing knowledge deficit, is contributing to overall inaction.
Our research, The state of sustainability in the legal sector, heard from 100 employees working in the UK legal sector. It found that while two thirds (66%) of employees believe their company has clear sustainability goals, many of those responsible for delivering plans lack confidence in their ability to achieve them.
This comprehensive guide to sustainability progress in the sector explores:
- The importance of sustainability and crucial drivers for change across the legal landscape
- The severity of challenges felt in supporting the global transition to net zero, and suggests ways in which this must be changed
- How sustainability initiatives continue to take a backseat to other areas of business focus
- The vast opportunity surrounding scope 4, or advised, emissions – although less than one in five (18%) employees view them as a key part of their strategy
- An actionable roadmap for change – how to deliver on carbon reduction plans and navigate barriers to the sector’s climate leadership
