Motus is committed to creating sustainable value while actively considering the use of scarce natural resources in our business operations. We set multi-year targets focused on reducing our use of water, purchased electricity and fuel within our vehicle fleets. This has enabled a reduction in measured carbon of 16% since 2019, despite an increase in business operations. As part of our responsibility journey, we have invested in solar panel electricity generation at sites in South Africa, Australia and the United Kingdom, plus we ensure that our harvesting and recycling of rainwater is optimised for use in our wash bays. This World Environment Day let us reaffirm our individual and collective responsibilities to reduce, reuse and recycle.   #Motus #MobilityForGood
