At THEY, we strive to be active participants in the transition toward a sustainable future, rather than merely preaching about it. Over the years, we’ve taken significant steps to reduce our carbon footprint and bring about tangible change.
Our journey toward sustainability began with a baseline carbon assessment—an analysis of the organisation’s environmental impact that provided insights to move forward with. This step offered a clear picture of the status quo across all operations, laying the groundwork for strategies targeted at reducing emissions.
We then initiated plans focused on systematically lowering emissions, managing waste, and creating overall eco-consciousness.
A cornerstone of our sustainability action plan was the company-wide adoption of eco-friendly materials. This meant going above and beyond regulatory compliance by introducing ways for both individuals and the organisation to consciously source environmentally friendly materials and make daily decisions aligned with our sustainability goals.
We also introduced rigorous waste management practices, transforming how resources are consumed and waste is handled. These practices were designed to maximise recycling, minimise landfill contributions, and encourage mindful consumption in the workplace.
While introducing better waste and emissions management practices was a key step in the journey, we acknowledged that transparency in individual carbon footprints was equally important. The organisation prepared a comprehensive report on all employee travel emissions, as well as emissions from workplace water, gas, and electricity usage. Furthermore, we tracked the usage, efficiency, and emissions from heavy appliances in use—i.e., refrigerators and air conditioners.
These reports supplemented our process of identifying areas for improvement and impact.
Through these collective efforts, THEY has set a benchmark for environmental responsibility in business—a testament to our unwavering vision of a sustainable and thriving planet.
