declares emissions lows and charitable giving highs in Responsible Business Report
Summary
NATS has accelerated its estate net zero targets from 2050 to 2035, highlighted in its annual Responsible Business Report, published today. As a result of the pandemic, business travel came to an almost complete stop over the past year and the use of agile working has hastened a better use of people and space; all of which has improved sustainability and reduced the company’s emissions. Arrival holding was almost eliminated, direct routeing increased, and constraints impacting vertical flight efficiency largely disappeared. The report notes NATS entering into a sustainability-linked bank facility earlier this year, which includes challenging Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) linked to emissions reduction. Martin Rolfe, NATS CEO, said: “As a responsible business, our priority over the past year has been to ensure that our company and our employees come out of the other side of the pandemic in good shape and well placed to support our customers in their recovery.
