We are back with another environmental update!
It is no secret - Here at Netmatters, we take pride in our dedication to environmental responsibility. As a leading company in bespoke software, IT support, and Digital Marketing, we understand that our impact reaches far beyond the digital world, and we take strides every day to help shape the world for a better future.
Environmental Sustainability Is Built into Our Culture
We have centred sustainability and environmental commitment throughout all our operations. From adapting to a paperless office to transitioning our fleet to comprise of much eco-friendlier Nissan Leaf's, each year we take steps to progress our environmental awareness and minimise our environmental impact.
Proud to champion the Gold Standard for the Carbon Charter, back in 2021, we achieved the significant milestone of attaining a Carbon Neutral Status and were thrilled to partner with Ecologi to provide both a virtual and visual impact on the good our climate contributions are achieving.
Ecologi is a movement dedicated to combating climate change, promoting reforestation, and supporting carbon offset projects worldwide. With their support, we have access to a live virtual forest that provides an up-to-date landscape and representation of the real impact and milestone that have been achieved through our carbon neutral efforts.
Today, Netmatters is delighted to celebrate that:
- We have now planted 11,761 trees!
- We have prevented 444.9 tonnes of CO2e (Carbon dioxide equivalent) – that is equivalent to 1,103,797 car miles, 1,335 metres2 of sea ice saved, or 341 long haul flights!
But that is not all! We would like to seize this moment to celebrate a few more milestones by shouting them from the rooftops, celebrating some of the specific projects we have helped support:
- The Solar power projects in Morocco to prevent CO2 emissions
- Avoid methane emissions from landfill in Brazil
- Generate wind power in the United States
- The Peatland restoration and conservation in Indonesia
- Turning local organic waste into electricity in India
- The Protection of the Matavén forest in eastern Columbia
