UK law firm TLT has achieved a ‘B’ score for good environmental management, from CDP, an independent, global non-profit that runs the world’s leading environmental disclosure platform. This maintains TLT’s score from last year, demonstrating a sustained commitment to environmental management and consistency in delivering results. This year has seen more than 23,000 companies disclose through CDP – a practice which is increasingly seen as a business norm.
CDP scoring provides a snapshot of a company’s disclosure and environmental performance and plays an important role in keeping companies on a journey of continuous improvement. To achieve a ‘B’ score, companies must “have addressed the environmental impacts of their business and ensure good environmental management.” TLT’s ‘B’ score places it in the 32% of companies that reached the ‘Management’ level in the specialised professional services sector, ahead of the average sector performance score of C.
Companies are assessed and scored across four consecutive levels representing the steps a company moves through as it progresses towards the highest level of environmental stewardship: Disclosure (D-/D score);
Awareness (C-/C score); Management (B-/B score); Leadership (A-/A score).
TLT’s data will now be added to the CDP’s comprehensive inventory of self-reported environmental data and will be used to help to drive action through greater transparency.
The CDP scoring is the latest in a series of achievements for TLT’s environmental strategy including having its net-zero target approved by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and winning
the Lloyds Bank Sustainable Business of the Year Award at the edie Awards in 2023.
TLT LLP is a UK law firm headquartered in Bristol.
