We welcome M&S’s decision to maintain hourly pay above the sector average - but we are concerned by a growing trend across supermarkets, including M&S, to move away from alignment with the real Living Wage.

A quote from Jackie Garton, Interim Head of Corporate Climate Campaigns that reads: "The standards that were originally designed to help foster an emerging voluntary renewable energy market are no longer fit for purpose. Renewable energy is now the fastest growing source of energy, making this a critical moment to ensure the rules fully reflect how power is generated, transmitted and consumed today.”
📢 Today, 14 investors with $1.2 trillion assets under management are urging the Greenhouse Gas Protocol to update Scope 2 rules so reporting reflects real electricity use.
