Rhug Estate, renowned for its commitment to sustainability, has announced its intention to achieve Planet Mark Business Certification. The estate, led by Lord Newborough, is taking significant steps to reduce its environmental impact and contribute to a greener future.
Mared, the estate’s Carbon Project guru, will spearhead the certification process. This ambitious undertaking aligns with Rhug Estate’s long-standing dedication to sustainable practices, which includes organic farming, renewable energy generation, and a focus on animal welfare.
Planet Mark Business Certification recognises organisations that demonstrate a commitment to reducing their carbon footprint and making a positive contribution to society. By pursuing this certification, Rhug Estate aims to further solidify its position as a leader in sustainable business practices.
Lord Newborough expressed his enthusiasm for the project, stating, “We are excited to embark on this journey towards Planet Mark certification. It is a natural progression of our ongoing commitment to sustainability. We believe that by taking measurable steps to reduce our environmental impact, we can inspire others to follow suit.”
Rhug Estate will provide regular updates on its progress towards Planet Mark certification, keeping the public informed about the initiatives undertaken and the positive impact on the environment.
