Our Partnership With Ecologi.
We’re excited to announce we’ve partnered with climate change partner Ecologi to help offset our carbon footprint emissions.
We recognise the impact our activities have on the environment, which is why we’re finding new and engaging ways to slow down and reverse climate change, across both our business and our supply chain.
In partnership with Ecologi, we’re funding carbon offsetting projects around the world through a monthly subscription. As well as driving climate action, many of these projects also contribute positively to local communities. Recent projects include funding wind turbines in India, protecting the Amazon rain forest and, in Malawi, repairing water boreholes to improve access to clean water.
Our dedicated Green Team has been ‘greenifying’ our business’s internal infrastructure and processes since 2019.
We aim to stretch ourselves further as a business by offsetting staff-related emissions.
We’ve set ourselves four top line objectives specific to Environment / ESG.
Achieve carbon offset status for our business
Improve our environmental credentials
Drive sustainability into our organisational network – employees, clients, partners
Move business to a carbon negative status
So far, we’re thrilled to say we’ve already achieved the following:
Established an energy and waste consumption scorecard for our business
Offset 267,000 kg of carbon to date
Created a corrective action plan to address opportunities to further ‘greenify’ our business
Established a relationship with a key sustainability partner Ecologi
We’ve been awarded the environmental management standard accreditation ISO 14001
Appointed a dedicated Supplier Compliance Manager to drive sustainable procurement activities
Reached out to key suppliers within our supply chain to assess their own sustainability credentials
We’re becoming climate positive in partnership with Ecologi by responsibly planting 1000s of trees.
The Tree Planting project is the latest of Accurate’s contributions to playing our part in meeting carbon reduction targets. Planting trees is one of the best tools we have in removing carbon pollution from our atmosphere. And through partnering with Ecologi we’ve made it easy for our colleagues and clients to join in and add trees to our company ‘forest’. Collectively, with a little input from a lot of people, we have the power to make a difference.
To launch our initiative, we planted trees for every new starter that joined our business, as well as to mark key anniversaries for existing staff.
We’re proud to announce we’ve been awarded the ISO 14001 accreditation.
We’re delighted to announce we have been awarded the ISO 14001 certification. This will see us implement a wide range of far-reaching environmental management policies, to reduce our impact and adopt sustainable practices throughout our operations. It also demonstrates our commitment to actively seeking out ways of doing business that are better for the environment.
