As part of their vision and commitment to becoming a sustainable business, Casedo has been accredited as a Green Small Business.
Green Small Business [2] is an independent environmental accreditation created to help businesses manage and reduce their environmental impact by implementing an environmental management system with the aim of becoming a net-zero business.
Though sustainability has always been a core principle for the way Casedo does business, it has only recently made this a core part of its business strategy. Casedo now has an agreed Environmental (as well as Use of Transport) Policy, and will be publishing both these and its Environmental Action Plan by the end of January 2022. Environmental sustainability is one of the main strands of Casedo’s overall strategy in this area, with social sustainability being the other. Regarding the latter, Casedo recently became an accredited Living Wage Employer.
According to the Carbon Majors Database [3], a report published by the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP), Just 100 companies globally have been responsible for 71% of the global greenhouse gass emissions that, since 1998, have contributed to climate change. It appears that it is business that is primarily behind emissions, not individuals.
“Sustainability has always been a part of Casedo’s ethos. It is now part of our strategy. This is just the beginning of our journey; we have more exciting projects coming up.” – Jim Hitch, CEO, Casedo.
