The first year of the partnership has focused on building board level understanding and commitment around the principles of sustainable business, and what leadership might look like for John Laing. We were really encouraged by the willingness of the Board to accept and tackle issues like climate change and carbon management. 2007 has seen this learning transfer into action on the ground. We are enjoying working with John Laing to identify and deliver practical business solutions to the environmental and social challenges that they face today.
