Title
Environmental performance
Description
The EEA has been certified under the EU Eco-Management and Audit Scheme (EMAS) since 2005. Since then we have worked to minimise our environmental impact using measures such as the procurement of renewable energy, reduction in the use of energy and paper, enhanced recycling and offsetting travel-related emissions.
