This essential area contains several ambitious targets where we are constantly striving to make a positive change to make the world a better place. This covers areas such as water self-sufficiency, reduction in waste, carbon neutrality and biodiversity.
We have already begun making practical changes to the way we operate. For example, during the 2020-21 season we switched all our mains fed energy (gas and electricity) to renewable tariffs. This covers all our sites – Anfield, The AXA Training Centre and The Academy, and now includes The AXA Melwood Training Centre.
This switch has prevented 2,636 tonnes of potential carbon emissions from being emitted. This is equivalent to the annual carbon emissions of 264 individuals in the U.K.
This is just one of the many examples of the changes we are making. There is a long way to go, but we are committed to the journey.
