Environmental Sustainability

Why Should Organisations Care About The Environment and Sustainability?

If we continue with our current rate of CO2 emissions, we are poised to witness a rise in global average temperatures by approximately two degrees Celsius. Such a temperature shift signifies not just a numerical change but a drastic upheaval in our environmental patterns.

To make a difference, businesses need to accelerate their emission reduction strategies, targeting net zero emissions by 2050.

The business case for sustainability extends beyond just environmental responsibility. Addressing climate change can lead to significant reductions in operating costs, spanning areas such as materials, water, heating, electricity, waste management.

This is the moment for businesses to pivot towards a low-carbon future.

Reduce waste

We monitor amount of waster generated in our supply chain, pinpointing avenues to reduce, reuse, and recycle materials. Collaborating with local organizations that specialize in extracting value from waste streams can considerably enhance a business's waste management profile

Producing designs that promote wasteful habits inadvertently fuels an already resource-draining system. We separate paper, plastics, general waste efficiently.

Optimize energy consumption

Excessive energy consumption not only strains the electrical grid but also inflates operational costs - expenses that can be effectively curtailed. A thorough review of how we manage heating, cooling, lighting, and the utilization of equipment and appliances considerably reduce energy footprint

When it comes to lighting, making the switch from conventional light bulbs to LEDs and incorporated smart sensors to extinguish lights when not in use

Regarding equipment, replacing outdated and less efficient models with their energy-saving counterparts marked a difference, especially during peak electricity demand periods

Encourage employees to adopt sustainable habits

  • Promote using Public transport to work
  • Car Pooling options
  • Cycle to work options
  • Use Train instead of flight where there are fast train network.
  • Switching to Electric Cars and avail local incentive schemes

Promote Planting Trees

Trees observe Carbon dioxide when they grow, reducing the amount of greenhouse gasses in the atmosphere and slowing climate change. Restoring degraded forests creates habitat for many species. Trees helps to filter storm water runoff and pollutants, this reduce flash flood risks prevent wind and water erosion. Keeps healthy and happy well being for all communities in daily lives

  • Promote planting trees. This could be in back garden, on street, on parks etc to add.
  • Kind of trees planted make a huge difference in reducing climate change
  • Donate to tree planting efforts around the world. We find projects that restore native forest efforts and into planting trees and help in our contributions
  • Have clear signage above the recycle bins
  • Keep bins consistent across the sites
  • Conduct regular education session on Environmental sustainability
  • Communication on recycling tips in office and Home
  • Promote reusable alternatives (example Promote Coffee mugs instead of plastic cups)
  • Report on waste reduction progress
