relevant environmental standards and legislation;
II. Increase awareness of environmental impact amongst employees, facility users, tenants
and contractors, as well as public institution that we regulate environment issues;
III. Monitor people’s consumption of primary raw materials (water, energy etc.) and
implement the principles of reduction, reuse and recycling across all its activities so as to
minimize, within the constraints set by our scientific analysis, waste and CO emissions
produced as a result of our activities;
IV. Ensure environmental performance of prospective suppliers is considered in the
procurement processes;
V. Encourage the use of modes of transport by staff, contractors and users that minimize
environmental impact, promoting the use of technologies that eliminate the need for
travel;
VI. Develop and maintain our estates and buildings in an environmentally sustainable
manner, seeking to protect natural habitats and local wildlife, minimizing light pollution
and preserving biodiversity in partnership with local communities; and
VII. Report annually on environmental performance and set realistic environmental
objectives against which the improvement in our environmental performance can be
monitored
