Sky Set To Become Net Zero Carbon Over Next Ten Years

is set to go net zero carbon over the next ten years – looking to become Europe’s first net zero carbon media and entertainment company.-backed pay-TV broadcaster is aiming to achieve its goal by 2030 by cutting the emissions created from the use of its products, its suppliers across the world and by its business.

It is planning to make all of its tech products more energy efficient, developing sustainable film and TV studios, making every Sky original production, show, film and TV channel net zero carbon and transforming its 5,000 vehicle fleet to create a zero emissions fleet. It will also help the 11,000 companies that work with Sky include the tech firms that make its TV boxes or the production companies it employs and will plant trees, mangroves and seagrass to absorb the carbon it can’t cut yet.Sky will seek validation of its targets from the Science-Based Target Initiative and will publicly report its carbon footprint.

This is the latest endeavor for the company, which has been leading the way in environmental matters over the last few years. It operates Sky Ocean Rescue, which champions ocean health in association with WWF, and last year, Sky Studios chief commercial officer Jane Millichip urged the TV industry to improve its approach to the environment. At Mipcom, she called for companies to ban “pointless gifts” and urged festival organizers to make events carbon neutral and free from single-use plastic.

Tanya Steele, WWF Chief Executive, added, “Sky’s net zero pledge is ambitious and hugely welcome as it stretches across its supply chain and will reach millions of its customers. Only a handful of UK businesses are showing the leadership that is needed to help tackle the climate crisis in this way, despite the devastating toll that climate change is taking on our planet.
