Description

As the Environment Agency, our role is to create a better place for people and wildlife. As well as regulating and supporting businesses and organisations to protect and improve the environment and achieve sustainable growth, we ourselves need to act urgently to tackle our own negative impacts on the planet.

The Environment Agency (EA) has an ambitious sustainability strategy eMission2030 which addresses the 4 pillars of sustainability:

Responding to the climate emergency - net zero by 2030

Optimising our use of resources - moving from a linear to a circular business model

Delivering environmental net gain

Benefitting people and communities - social value

This brief focuses on b) resource optimisation and our goal to move from a linear to a circular economy model.

The latest evidence tells us that 1.7 Earths are needed to support our global demands. We want to live within our planetary boundaries and play our part in working to achieve United Nations Sustainable Development Goal (UN SDG) 12; "Responsible Production and Consumption". To do this, we need to understand what the Environment Agency currently uses in terms of resources, so that we can measure our progress.
