Sustainability as part of the corporate strategy
The IT services company PASSION4IT has deeply embedded sustainability in its values since it was founded in 2019. From the very beginning, PASSION4IT has been a member of One Percent for the planet and has since donated more than 1% of its annual turnover to environmental protection. Now the company wants to go one step further and anchor sustainability holistically in its own corporate strategy.
By working with Planted, we were able to quickly and easily create a carbon footprint for our company and plant 3,200 trees in our company forest. Net Zero 2025 together with Planted!

CO₂ balancing and local environmental protection
Together with Planted, PASSION4IT calculates internal CO₂ emissions and promotes the preservation of our ecosystems. Another goal is the internal reduction of their emissions.
Recording the CO₂ balance sheet
As a first step on the way to becoming a more sustainable company, PASSION4IT used the Planted SaaS software to collect data on operational emissions. This was entered into the CO₂ calculator of the Planted software solution and analyzed automatically. This revealed the biggest CO₂ hotspots and, in the next step, a reduction plan was drawn up to reduce the balance of 23.14 tons of CO₂e(from 2022).
Own local company forest
By planting 3,200 climate-stable trees, PASSION4IT is actively promoting the protection of biodiversity. The trees are planted in the vicinity of the company and provide an impetus for climate-stable mixed forest. This preserves the forest as an important climate protector and natural CO₂ sink with all its protective functions.
Net-Zero until 2025
PASSION4IT has set itself the goal of achieving Net-Zero by 2025 and becoming a pioneer for real climate action in the region.
By working with Planted, PASSION4IT was able to gain an initial overview of its corporate carbon footprint, analyze its emissions and uncover CO₂ hotspots. This was the first step towards a holistic sustainability strategy, on the basis of which the company's carbon footprint of 17.37 tons of CO₂eis now to be actively reduced.
The following measures are planned, among others:
- Sustainable design of the vehicle fleet
- No business trips within Germany by plane
- Use of used hardware
- Operate server capacities with green electricity
- More sustainable promotional gifts and equipment
