Next 10-years is a vital period for the planet’s long-term future

Research has clearly shown that the next 10-years is a vital period for the planet’s long-term future and considerable work is required to reduce carbon emissions to ultimately lower the rate of rising temperatures. This responsibility has been taken on by governments through the Paris Agreement, but the EEF believe it is necessary that all organisations, and individuals, take responsibility for their role in climate change and work towards a more sustainable future.

The EEF aims to align and support global industry commitments such as the UN Sports for Climate Action, of which the FEI is a signatory, that aims to educate, advocate for, and crucially reduce carbon emissions by 50% by 2030.

This work is championed by the EEF Sustainability Working Group. They will take the defined EEF Sustainability Strategy and manage its delivery in line with the specified timelines. Read the strategy here.
