Environmental and Sustainability

Ethos Heritage CIC recognises its responsibility as an community archaeology facilitator to protect the environment for current and future generations. We are on a journey to becoming Net Zero and minimizing our Carbon Footprint. This is being moved forward by several initiatives we have put in place on our projects.

To minimise and actively manage waste through elimination, reduction, reuse and recycling across our academies.

Energy and Water

To conserve water through efficient use and management, and to reduce energy use and our carbon emissions to be carbon neutral.
