Commitment to Achieving Net Zero

Learno, a service provider offering compliance app solutions, is committed to achieving Net Zero emissions by 2050. As a responsible organisation, we recognize the urgent need to address climate change and the role businesses play in driving environmental sustainability. By committing to Net Zero, we aim to minimize the environmental impact of our app solutions and operations while supporting global efforts to limit temperature rise to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels.

Understanding the Importance of Measuring Our Carbon Footprint

Climate change poses significant risks to businesses, communities, and ecosystems worldwide. Rising global temperatures contribute to an increase in the frequency and severity of extreme weather events, disrupt supply chains, and present health and safety challenges. Measuring our carbon emissions enables Learno to:

Identify the key activities and processes contributing to greenhouse gas emissions.

Develop data-driven strategies to mitigate our impact on the environment.

Monitor progress toward emissions reduction targets.

Demonstrate transparency and accountability to stakeholders.

Our Carbon Footprint Baseline

Establishing a carbon footprint baseline is critical to understanding our current environmental impact and setting meaningful reduction targets. As a compliance app business, Learno’s baseline for the year 2024 includes emissions associated with our digital services and operations:

Scope 1 (Direct Emissions): Emissions from activities we control directly, such as fuel consumption by company-owned vehicles.

Scope 2 (Indirect Emissions): Emissions from the generation of purchased electricity, heating, and cooling consumed by Learno.

Scope 3 (Value Chain Emissions): Indirect emissions resulting from activities outside our control but within our value chain, such as business travel, employee commuting, waste management, and product lifecycle impacts.

Our baseline assessment aligns with industry standards and will serve as a benchmark for measuring progress.

Emissions Reduction Targets

To support our commitment to Net Zero by 2050, Learno has established the following interim reduction targets:

By 2025: Achieve a 10% reduction in total emissions from our 2024 baseline.

By 2030: Achieve a 30% reduction in total emissions from our 2024 baseline.

By 2040: Achieve a 70% reduction in total emissions from our 2024 baseline.

By 2050: Achieve Net Zero emissions across all scopes.

These targets align with the latest climate science and are designed to ensure that Learno contributes meaningfully to global decarbonization efforts.
