This report is published by the British Geological Survey (BGS) and outlines how we are moving towards greater environmental sustainability (minimising harm and enhancing benefit) whilst staying at the cutting edge of our research. Our strategy follows our parent organisation’s (UKRI) vision to ‘embed sustainability in everything we do’ (UKRI Strategic Prospectus, 2018). We will embed it in all we do and continue to make a positive contribution by lowering our environmental impact and addressing current environmental challenges and global sustainability issues.
