Advocate for sustainable business

🔴
  • We only did one small action this year supporting Business for 75. A coalition of organisations calling on the Australian Government to commit to at least a 75% emissions reduction target by 2035, because strong climate action is essential for Australia’s future — and good for business.
  • Sarah also personally contributed to B Local Melbourne in various ways running events and engaging the community.

Re-use, recycle and manage dangerous waste

🟢
  • We continue to implement our hazardous waste policy and are on a continuous learning and improvement journey.
  • We repair damaged hardware and minimise purchasing of new equipment.
  • Personally we're all Facebook Marketplace fans.

To be updated: Donate 5% revenue to the environment

🟢
  • We delivered this as $55k of pro bono service to RIAA who are the leading industry body in Australia and New Zealand dedicated to aligning investment capital with a healthy society, environment and economy. We believe where you invest — and how you choose to use your money — has a powerful impact on people and the planet.
  • Going forward our plan is to commit 50% of profits to invest in clean tech enterprises and/or donations to charitable organisations fighting climate change.

Be climate positive at work and at home

🟠
  • We don’t track our CO2 emissions, rather we take a much more general and high emissions view. However, this year, we didn’t donate to the environment (see above) so we can’t say we countered our CO2.
  • We continue to choose Hub as our office space for co-working who are Carbon Neutral Certified. Our overall carbon emissions are mostly contributed by our technology usage and we haven’t got a very detailed view on what that is and how to offset it.
