On Thursday 22 April the world celebrates Earth Day. And here at Breakwater IT, we’ve been thinking about this day for a few months now. Because this year, we launched our new Sustainability Policy.
This policy sets out the actions we are taking as well as the support we’ve put in place to cut our impact on the environment. We’ve got a lot to learn and this is only the start of our journey.
Here are some highlights from the policy:
- We now plant five trees for every laptop we sell – plus we’ve backdated April’s sales! View our forest.
- We donate monthly to carbon offset projects
- We’re committed to only using 100% renewable energy providers
- We had electric car charging stations put in our office car park in 2018. Since then, 30% of our employees now drive electric or hybrid
- We’ve set a target to hold 50% of our client meetings remotely, even post-pandemic
- We recycle or dispose of old devices safely and correctly
- Plus much more!
Our policy is freely available for you to view. If you’d like to know more, head straight there.
