Let’s collaborate to accelerate the transition to ad net zero
Laura Wade, Global Head of Sustainability Strategy, EssenceMediacom
‘Since the 1950’s human activity has accelerated our demands on the planet and its natural resources – as demonstrated by what is called ‘ The Great Acceleration’ by scientists . We now are in the decisive decade to take action, we need a hard break on emissions in the next couple of years – in the same decade we are seeing the digital and data industries set to growth exponentially. Our use of data and digital has a physical impact on the world and is contributing to energy consumption. We have to act responsibility and as the global citizens we are.
At WPP/GroupM, we have Science Based commitments and we are the first and only holding group to include the Media we buy on behalf of our clients in our carbon footprint. Media makes up 55% of our scope3 footprint. We have committed to an 84% reduction by 2025 for our scope1 and 2 and a 50% reduction for Scope 3. Having commitments are great, and vital, however we are now focussed on our transition plan. Our Transition Plan has 3 key reduction levers 1. Media Supply Chain optimisation, 2. Partner engagement and 3. Media vendor selection. We need to work collaboratively with the entire media ecosystem to be able to effectively use these levers to drive our decarbonisation targets.
We have started this journey and in my deck I have shared some examples under each pillar – but we need the industry to come with us. If one fails we all fail. We need to move our mindset from seeing sustainability as a necessary chore to one that is about transformation and innovation for future fit business. Sustainability is no longer about should we do it, it’s about how we do it and how we do it together.’
