Employees, shareholders & customers are now hyper-conscious of their footprint and how it contributes to the climate crisis, but are not always sure how to help.

Together, we've collectively distributed 192 of these heaters so far - good going team!
Monthly Tips
Each month, we send you 5 tips you can really act on. They cover 5 footprint categories: food, travel, home, products & bonus
Example
Substitution Eggducation
The Task | Try the Ethical Eggternatives below to get your egg fix
Footprint of UK Egg Production
Whilst emissions from eggs are low comparative to meat, mass egg farming does still have a number of negative impacts - among which are ozone depletion, water acidification and land occupation.
Crackd
For all your baking & cooking needs, Crackd is made from all-natural pea protein and even does the job for your breakfast scrambling.
Planting Methods
Florenter with Seed Balls (Ipomoea, Kango)
This method is used across your fast-growing, high-germination species. It includes one or two seedlings being covered in a ball of clay, compost and soil, and then later dried out. Once there's a rainy season forecasted, the balls are then rapidly inserted into the site land, and are covered by a layer of soil to keep them in place. The idea here is to ensure the seedling germinates and begins growing into a sapling within a matter of days, whilst the ball protects the seedlings from damage.
