About us
Environmental policy
At Icaro, we care about the environmental, social and economic impact of our work, and we have committed ourselves to a number of modest initiatives that combine to make a big difference:
- Avoiding work-based private car journeys and taxis, where possible
- Avoiding business air travel for all trips within Great Britain
- Investing in telephone and video conferencing facilities
- Minimising our use of paper and other office consumables, through the use of double-sided printing as a default setting, and encouraging the printing of multiple pages per page
- Reusing and recycling office consumables, including paper, ink cartridges and batteries
- Always buying recycled paper and stationery products (where available)
- An annual donation to Fauna & Flora International (see below)
- Seeking out sustainable alternatives for events (for example, green conferencing)
- Ensuring that all sub-contractors and associates are aware of, and abide by, this policy.
- Ensuring that all our staff are fully aware of this policy.
Fauna & Flora International (www.fauna-flora.org) is a proven conservation innovator that helps to make a lasting impact on global biodiversity. Since 2009, we have given an annual
corporate charitable donation that has amounted to £1,000 per year (which in turn was doubled as part of The Big Give Christmas Challenge (www.thebiggive.org.uk). Icaro Consulting is a FFI Friend Against Extinction.
