  Fighting climate change

  As a member of the Government Digital Sustainability Alliance, CGI leads others to protect and improve the health of our planet.; CGI in the UK has committed to achieve net zero by 2026, based on Science Based Targets (SBTs), achieving an 84% reduction in emissions across our operations from our 2019 baseline. We will use our Carbon Impact Tool to identify and track contracting body contract associated emissions, building these into our net zero plans to reduce any negative environmental impacts of contracts.; We have extended our climate change commitment into our supply chain such that 50% of our suppliers, by spend, will have set their own SBTs to reduce their climate impact by 2026. This will apply to suppliers we engage to support the delivery of call-off contracts. We are supporting suppliers through quarterly net zero knowledge sharing webinars. So far 23% of our suppliers, by spend, have set SBTs.; Our environmental engagement programme 'No Planet B' influences CGI members, clients, suppliers and communities to support environmental protection and improvement. We achieve this through activities such as litter picking and our tree and hedge planting programme where, together with clients and suppliers we have planted 19,500+ UK native trees. Our members partner with clients and suppliers on tree-planting days. We will invite contracting bodies and their ecosystem partners to participate in such activities, connecting them with the environment and increasing protection and enhancement awareness.; CGI's UN-supported research programme, Sustainability Exploration Environmental Data Science (SEEDS), brings organisations, academics and experts together to collaboratively devise/deliver environmental solutions. SEEDS is accelerating efforts to address climate change by researching climate mitigation solutions and waste reduction.; We will continue our partnerships with charities and Social Enterprises, including Canal and River Trust to mobilise action on environmental protection objectives through collaborating with local communities.
