HOW DESIGN BOX IS HELPING THE PLANET
in 4 simple steps...
There are enough climate solutions that are out there right now, that if we supported them, it would undo 30 years of carbon damage, by avoiding 1,500 billion tonnes of CO2. Design Box is helping the cause.
Planting trees to offset carbon emissions
It’s now common knowledge that one of the best tools to tackle the climate crisis and keep our temperatures from rising above 1.5C is to plant trees.
They are also crucial to preventing ecological collapse. We’re embarking on this rewarding journey to low-carbon living, we will see 50 new tree’s planted for every new client that works with us here at Design Box.
A Climate positive workforce
Our whole team is part of Design Box’s climate positive workforce, meaning each staff member is working towards minimising their carbon footprint and supporting local and global environment.
We go beyond just reducing our impact; we actively contribute to creating a healthier planet. Through initiatives such as tree planting, renewable energy projects, and sustainable business practices, we’re not just offsetting our carbon emissions—we’re helping to reverse them.
Making an impact, for the planet
Design Box is supporting CO2 reduction projects with Gold Standard certification, knowing our efforts are being driven to the highest-rated projects and making the most impact possible to help our planet.
From reforestation efforts to clean energy development, we carefully select projects that not only reduce carbon emissions but also promote sustainable development and social equity. At Design Box, we believe that every action counts, and together, we can contribute to a more sustainable and resilient future for our planet.
Eco Friendly Websites & Web Hosting
In addition to our climate positive workforce, we’re committed to ensuring that the websites we design and host are as eco-friendly as possible. By leveraging energy-efficient servers and optimising site performance, we reduce the environmental impact of our digital solutions.
Our approach includes everything from minimising data transfer to being hosting providers who prioritise renewable energy sources. At Design Box, sustainability is woven into every aspect of our web services, allowing our clients to make a positive environmental impact with every click.
