Our 2023 Sustainability Report is Here!
We believe that our commitment to sustainability is integral to our identity as a responsible business. Our recent carbon footprint report provides a detailed snapshot of our environmental impact, showcasing both progress and areas to improve as we navigate the challenges of a changing world.
While our overall emissions remained stable at 11tCO₂e, there were notable shifts in specific categories that reflect our ongoing efforts to reduce our carbon footprint while addressing emerging challenges.
Digital Products:
One area of focus was our digital products, where emissions increased from 25 kgCO₂ to 36 kgCO₂. This rise was primarily driven by the increased usage of digital platforms, equivalent to the emissions from 360 hours of streaming on Netflix, without considering air conditioning usage.. Additionally, we logged 80 days' worth of video conferencing and streaming, showcasing our active digital engagement and communication.
Operations and Management:
Our operations and management activities saw a slight increase in emissions from 0.2 tCO₂e to 0.3 tCO₂e. This increase was attributed to our investments in marketing efforts and internal management tools.While this resulted in a minor rise in emissions, it also reflects our commitment to enhancing our services and operational efficiency.
Support Services and Purchases:
Efficiency improvements were evident in our support services and purchases category, where emissions reduced from 6.5 tCO₂e to 5.5 tCO₂e. This reduction was achieved through investments in better platforms to enhance our services, resulting in a more streamlined and environmentally friendly approach to procurement and support services.
Offices/Sites:
An increase in emissions from 0.3 tCO₂e to 1.3 tCO₂e was observed in our offices and sites category. This increase was largely due to the expansion of our team members, although the majority of them were working remotely.. Despite this rise, we remain committed to implementing sustainable practices in our office operations.
Travel:
Our commitment to sustainable travel practices resulted in a significant reduction of travel emissions from 4.3 tCO₂e to 3.4 tCO₂e.. This reduction is equivalent to the emissions generated by three round trips between Paris and New York in economy class, reflecting our efforts to minimize our environmental impact.
In conclusion, Austrine's Carbon Emission Report for 2023 showcases our ongoing commitment to sustainability and environmental stewardship. While we faced challenges in certain areas, such as the increase in digital product emissions and office emissions, we also made significant strides in reducing travel emissions and improving efficiency in support services. Moving forward, we remain dedicated to implementing sustainable practices across all aspects of our operations, striving to further reduce our carbon footprint and contribute positively to environmental conservation.
What’s a Rich Text element?
The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.
Static and dynamic content editing
A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!
How to customize formatting for each rich text
Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
