CONSIDERING IT ALL
Our 2022 carbon
emissions measurement
will serve as our new
baseline for progress,
as it is our most accurate
measurement so far,
newly including emissions
due to commuting, remote
working, and more.
Growing as a business means tracking our footprint accurately. Our 2022
emissions are higher than prior year's, and that is largely due to our growth as a
company and improvements made to measure at a more granular level.
AlixPartners works closely with One Carbon World (OCW), a partner to the UN
Climate Neutral Now Initiative, and Plan A to help us measure, report, offset,
and plan for further decarbonization efforts. In 2022, those partnerships allowed
us to measure our GHG emissions better than ever before, assessing emissions
across all areas of impact from our systems, employees, vendors, and partners.
As a global consulting firm, our emissions mainly fall under Scope 3, associated
with procurement and travel. Our new ability to measure thoroughly provides
baseline figures from 2022 that we plan to use for all targets and reporting
going forward, as they represent more accurately the true carbon impact of
our organization. For that reason, AlixPartners has retired its previous target
of reducing 2019 emissions by 10% by 2023, given that it reflects an outdated
emissions baseline. The team is actively developing meaningful targets off our
revised base year of 2022.
Key:
Scope 1: AlixPartners' scope 1 emissions
include those related to a fleet of vehicles the
firm is responsible for in EMEA.
Scope 2: AlixPartners' scope 2 emissions
include those related to electricity and heat
purchased for our offices.
Scope 3: AlixPartners' scope 3 emissions
include those related to client travel, and
procurement activities, including purchases of
supplies and services used in operations.

OUR PLANET MATTERS
We are proud to be carbon neutral. Our long-term
aspiration is to reach net zero and control our
emission sources entirely. With the help of Plan A, our
long-term decarbonization strategy will identify better
sustainability practices to apply across our supplier
engagements, renewable energy sources for our
offices, and travel protocols.
Our journey to Net Zero will not happen overnight but
through intentional planning and support across our
leadership, we will be an even more sustainable firm.
