State of Play has committed to achieving net zero carbon, joining non-profit organisation Zero Carbon Forum in order to help reach its target.
The experiential leisure operator said it will abate all unavoidable emissions from its direct operations by 2030, and across its supply chains by 2040, while credibly offsetting residuals, in order to reach its goal.
To deliver against its net zero target State of Play has already measured its current UK carbon footprint, enabling the group to build its road map to net zero.
It will complete the same exercise across its US estate by the end of the year.
The operator of Bounce and Hijingo has also rolled-out an energy saving programme called ‘Save While You Sleep’, across its venues, to reduce overnight energy use.
It said Zero Carbon Forum would support the group to reach its net zero targets faster, more efficiently and more cost effectively than acting alone.
Toby Harris, CEO of State of Play Hospitality, commented: “As we enter our second decade of the State of Play journey, we are focused on reducing our carbon footprint as quickly as possible.
“Our commitment to net zero forms part of our wider ESG strategy and we’re delighted to be the first experiential leisure operator to join Zero Carbon Forum.”
