What we found

Desk review: The Red Way Report 2024-25 confirms Scope 1 down 89% and zero Scope 2 for several seasons (96% clean energy via on-site solar + purchased renewables) - genuine operational decarbonisation, not REGO-only. Overall footprint -13% vs 2019-20 and Scope 3 -17%, though Scope 3 (fan travel + Anfield Road Stand rebuild) still dominates. Was under-scored -> raised to a strong Certified, held below Leader because total-footprint reduction is modest.

Based on published or independently verifiable evidence available at the time of assessment.
