Today is World Earth Day! A day that serves as a reminder to us about the importance of conservation and sustainability, and to encourage action for a healthier planet.
As a mutual building society, we recognise the importance we play in taking and encouraging meaningful action on climate change. We are committed to playing our part in meeting the goals of the Paris Agreement and achieving Net Zero. That’s why we are delighted to announce our exciting new partnership with Greenr.
Greenr are a ‘Sustainability as a Service’ platform, who will help calculate and refine our emissions figures. This partnership will help us to accurately measure our carbon footprint and identify areas where we can make positive changes.
Our partnership will offer our colleagues climate workshops to improve their climate literacy and access to the Greenr lifestyle carbon reducing app. The app will enable colleagues to calculate their own carbon footprint, track daily carbon emissions and pick sustainable pledges helping them to live a sustainable lifestyle.
Every small individual action counts towards making a big impact as a collective, and we want to empower our team members to make a difference in their daily lives. By taking these proactive steps, we're well on our way to becoming a leading sustainable organisation, as we, our colleagues and our members continue on a journey together towards a brighter, more sustainable future.
