Sustainability is at the heart of The PR Network. Over the past year, we’ve made great strides in understanding and reducing our environmental impact. Here’s a look at what we’ve accomplished and our plans moving forward.

Understanding Our Impact

Partnering with Furthr, a climate consultancy, allowed us to accurately measure our emissions. This partnership has provided the data needed to make informed decisions about our environmental footprint.

Key Achievements

  • Emissions Measurement: We now have solid data for our 2022 operations, setting a clear baseline for future reductions.

  • Offsetting Projects: Invested in Gold Standard verified projects in Myanmar and Uganda to offset our emissions.

  • Tree Planting: Planted 50 trees in our company forest, contributing to global reforestation efforts.

Future Plans

As we move forward, we’re committed to:

  • Improving Measurement: Better understanding and measuring third-party emissions, particularly from our suppliers.

  • Smarter Tech Purchasing: Adopting more sustainable ways to buy new tech and responsibly dispose of old tech.

  • Team Education: Continuing to educate our team on the importance of B Corp and steps to reduce individual footprints.

Our journey towards sustainability is ongoing, and we are excited about the positive changes we can make. Read more about our environmental efforts in the full Impact Report here.
