Beyond Green Sustainability Newsletter Winter 2024

This newsletter, we’re reflecting on COP29, sharing some tips on saving energy over the winter, and announcing a team change.


Energy Saving Tips for Winter

As we’re heading into the coldest parts of the year, heating costs will drive up business costs. Business Energy Scotland’s handy guide on staying warm for less is a good starting point for considering ways to reduce your heating costs as a business. 


Craig Moving On

Craig is moving on after a year with Beyond Green. During his time with us, he has worked on 11 Business Energy Scotland projects with an identified cost saving of £19,600 and potential carbon reduction of 81tCO2e.

Craig has been instrumental in us expanding our processes for supporting trainees joining our team, ensuring that our new team members feel supported while settling into their new roles.

We wish him all the best in his new role!

COP29 – Sustainability and the weather shaping our lives

Every year for COP, we like to take the opportunity to take a step back and reflect on climate change both locally and globally. For too long, most of the Western world has seen climate change as a problem only impacting distant islands and peoples. We are now faced with two competing challenges: adapting to the risks (more risks than opportunities) of climate change, and mitigating further impacts by reducing emissions from fossil fuels and land-use changes.
