Carbon credits are seen by several organisations as a crucial element towards achieving global net zero emissions by 2050, but despite earning a billion-dollar valuation from global companies, carbon credits have long struggled to inspire confidence. Some environmental groups approach carbon markets with scepticism, claiming that they allow companies to appear as though they are leading on climate action, when in fact they are not. In fact, the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) does not allow achieving short-term carbon reduction targets using carbon credits and by 2050 only up to 10% is allowed to be achieved through removal credits. Recently, the European Union also banned advertising of products and services as “carbon neutral” if the neutrality was achieved using carbon credits.

Alerts were raised in the UK in mid-2023 about a potential serious safety risk arising from the use of Reinforced Autoclaved Aerated Concrete [RAAC]. While this particular building practice appears to have been widely adopted in public structures (for example schools), it is possible that it has been applied in port or warehouse facilities in some parts of the world.

Volunteering can be defined as spending unpaid time to do something that benefits communities, the environment and charitable causes. Employer Supported Volunteering (ESV) can be attributed to companies that actively support and encourage their employees to take part in voluntary activities within their local communities, often during working hours. This allows organisations to have an impact across the communities in which they operate, with many employers introducing volunteering programmes as part of HR policies for employees, to support community organisations and charities with their time and skills. Volunteering activities may be physical activities, in-person skills-based opportunities, or can even be undertaken virtually for many charities.
