The challenge

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!

Solution

_{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}

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.
