Nourish

We’ve only just started

Over the last 20 years we have worked hard to reduce our consumption and emissions on the Estate, and we are now carbon neutral. We have no intention of stopping there. Our ambition is to reduce our footprint further by 30% by 2040. 

Running alongside this has been our investment in carbon sequestration through the ongoing management of our peatland and woodland. 

This is just the start of our journey. 

Where are we heading? 

Our ambition is visionary : to reintegrate and restore nature throughout our operation, reverse the bio-​diversity loss and take the lead in the natural capital revolution. This is within reach.

We continue to improve our net carbon negative position, and our ambition is to help our wider community work towards this. 

We know that through peatland restoration we can encourage areas of active bog, and tree planting and meadow restoration in the right places can achieve multiple benefits.

How are we getting there? 

Our mission is to deliver tangible and measurable environment benefit that improves biodiversity, soil health and water quality, reduces emissions and sequesters carbon. 

This is supported by our environmental education scheme, the Climate Action Academy, the delivery of a Corporate and Community Welfare Programme and the development of an investment community through our Nourish Partnerships.
