Sustainability
For generations to come.
At Pivotal, we recognise the urgency of the climate crisis and the critical role businesses play in combating it. While we're far from perfect, we're committed to continuous improvement, reducing our environmental impact, and helping our clients do the same. Our journey towards sustainability is ongoing, guided by a clear set of actions we’re taking now, our goals for the near future, and our vision for a more sustainable, eco-friendly digital landscape.
What We're Doing Now
Eco-Friendly Operations
We’ve initiated a series of green practices within our offices, including reducing waste, encouraging recycling, and adopting energy-efficient technologies. Our remote work policies are also designed to minimise commuting emissions, making our operations leaner and greener.
Sustainable Web Design
Our digital creations prioritise energy efficiency. We optimise images and employ coding practices that reduce the energy consumption of the websites and apps we build. We also opt for green hosting providers, ensuring our digital footprint is as light as possible.
Client Education
We actively work with our clients to incorporate sustainability into their digital strategies, from eco-friendly design principles to content that promotes environmental awareness among their audience.
Short-Term Goals
One Million Trees
Pivotal will support the Million Tree Pledge, a vital global movement aiming to plant one million trees to combat climate change, restore biodiversity, and bolster ecosystems. This initiative aligns with our commitment to sustainability, demonstrating our active role in reducing environmental footprints and enhancing planetary health. By joining this collective effort, we reaffirm our dedication to making a meaningful impact and fostering a greener, more resilient future for all.
Carbon Footprint Reduction
Within the next year, we aim to reduce our carbon footprint by 20% through more competent work practices and offset our remaining carbon emissions through verified environmental projects.
Green Certifications
We are obtaining certifications that recognise our sustainability efforts, including aiming for a B-Corp certification, which aligns with our values and operational goals.
Sustainability Consulting Services
Expand our offering to include sustainability consulting, empowering our clients to make informed decisions that align with their environmental values.
