The Travel Corporation (TTC) has urged travel to "avoid distractions" on its journey towards a sustainable future following the launch of its 2022 Impact Report.

The report, which showcases impacts and progress against the group’s 11 sustainability goals under its How We Tread Right (HWTR) strategy, found it had reduced Scope 1 emissions by 27%, Scope 2 emissions by 42% and Scope 3 emissions by 45%. 

Scope 1 deals with direct emissions from owned or controlled sources, Scope 2 is indirect emissions from the generation of purchased energy and Scope 3 includes all indirect emissions which are not included in Scope 2.

Since the launch of the HWTR scheme, the brand has replaced its goal to become carbon neutral by 2030 with the more ambitious target of reaching net zero GHG emissions by 2050.
