For years we have been endeavouring to reduce our carbon footprint. To this end, we are, on the one hand, trying to avoid unnecessary CO2 emissions, for example by reducing our travel activities – as we had already done before the corona virus pandemic – through the increased use of video conferencing and preferably travelling by train. Additionally, apart from a few, rare exceptions, our employees regularly cycle or use public transport to get to the office.
Furthermore, we obtain our electricity from a provider that supplies electricity from renewable energy with a certificate of origin and use local/district heating for heating and hot water in the office. On the other hand, we have once again made a CO2 compensation payment to atmosfair – this time covering the period from May 2022 to May 2024. As before, we used a CO2 calculator to calculate our CO2 emissions with the help of the data available to us as well as estimated values and determined the total amount required to offset these emissions. We rounded up this amount to a total of EUR 2,300 and transferred it to atmosfair. You can find the donation certificate here.
We are pleased to continue contributing to climate protection as a company and are determined to remain on this path.
