Bar Sustainability Network Event

Every chambers’ sustainability journey begins with understanding its carbon footprint. Not sure where to start? This exclusive session for chambers will show you how to begin, using a practical, on-demand carbon counting approach designed for the Bar.

Why join?

For chambers and barristers, demonstrating meaningful climate action is becoming increasingly important – for clients, recruitment, regulatory expectations, and long-term resilience. Measuring carbon emissions is an essential first step. Done well, carbon accounting helps chambers understand their impact, identify efficiencies, reduce costs, and communicate progress with confidence.

This session will cover:

• Why measuring carbon matters – from client and regulatory expectations to reputational and competitive benefits for chambers.
• Getting started with carbon measurement – the core principles for chambers and what a first-year footprint typically looks like.
• Understanding the data – where to get the data from, what you need to collect, and how to do so efficiently within chambers.
• On-demand carbon counting – how to measure your emissions using simple, practical tools and methodologies.
• The brand-new Carbon Emissions Calculator – an introduction to the relaunched calculator designed specifically to support chambers.
• Communicating your impact – sharing your sustainability journey with clients, colleagues, and stakeholders.

Whether you are starting from scratch or refining your approach, this session will give you the clarity and confidence to begin managing your chambers’ carbon impact.
