  5. Work streams • 100% FSC timber in all our projects ; we have started to gather information on the percentage of FSC timber in projects. • Waste Targets ; our current waste targets are being revised. Once we have agreed on new industry best practice targets we will be looking for pilot projects to test these targets to ensure they are fit for IP.

  6. Work streams • A measurable net positive contribution to biodiversity; we are working with DEFRA and the Thames link project to create some practical ways of measuring biodiversity in projects and will again be looking for pilot projects that will help us test these procedures and refine them before rolling it out across the business. Eventually we will be covering all nine of our environmental objectives with several  work streams to update and embed these across IP.
