In helping reduce global carbon emissions Joomla Services goes beyond carbon neutral and is in fact Carbon Negative! We have always had a slim environmental footprint thanks in part to our physical location and our employee practices. As always we are a paperless office and recycle 100% of everything we possibly can. Our ability to be a Carbon Negative company is twofold.
Firstly, our hosting infrastructure and work computers are powered by renewable hydro electric facilities. Our region has one of the smallest possible footprints for electrical power generation in the world. All our power consumption, including all electronics, lighting and heating, produce a negligible carbon footprint. Joomla Services employees all work from home which results in a healthier and more flexible work experience but more importantly we are not adding the burden of powering and maintaining an office space as well as the energy to travel to and from work everyday. This saves both energy, money and lots of carbon!
Secondly, through the advancement and expansion of carbon offsetting programs we are able to make a contribution that directly reduces global carbon emissions. By supporting the production of clean energy we are reducing the amount of 'dirty' energy making its way into the marketplace. We have chosen to work with CarbonZero. Through our carbon purchases with them we are now a Carbon Negative company!
About CarbonZero:
