Medical Architecture publish Carbon Reduction Plan
We recognise that we are in a Climate Emergency and have joined UK Architects Declare (Climate and Biodiversity Emergency) and RIBA 2030 Climate Challenge networks to contribute to, and participate in, the profession’s initiatives and activity to rapidly reduce carbon.
As part of our commitment to achieve net zero carbon by 2050 or earlier, we have developed a Carbon Reduction Plan in accordance with the requirements of the Procurement Policy Note PPN 06-21. It is written to closely correlate to our objectives and improvement aspirations within ISO 14001:2015 Environmental Management Systems.
The document outlines our baseline and current carbon emissions and sets a target to reduce these by 71% over the next five years. It also outlines the initiatives we are taking to achieve this, with details of progress to date.

We are firmly committed to sustainable design and we continue to evolve our approach to ensure we make a positive difference through our project work. As well as this, we are looking closely at how we operate as a practice to identify changes we can make to reduce our own carbon emissions, and our carbon reduction plan is integral to this.
