Recent work

Flight Centre partnered with Edge Impact to launch their sustainability strategy, “Preserving and Enriching a World Worth Seeing,” and build a foundation for reporting aligned with ISSB, AASB S2 (climate), and GRI 3 frameworks.

Edge calculated Flight Centre’s carbon footprint and developed an Excel-based carbon tool to track emissions across reporting periods, enabling internal upskilling of their sustainability team and data owners.

We also delivered a data collection protocol and carbon reporting roadmap, helping Flight Centre strengthen climate disclosure, emissions reporting, and sustainability decision-making.
