ONE Creative environments, an integrated building design business with a dynamic multi-disciplinary team has achieved the Planet Mark certification.
Understanding and measuring its carbon footprint is the first step in identifying ways to minimise its impact on the planet. Over the next year, the company will continue to work towards reducing its carbon emissions and sharing its journey with its community to inspire others. By being more strategic about its environmental responsibility, ONE Creative environments will be able to significantly increase its positive impact and hope to encourage continual improvements within its community.
Through Planet Mark, the company has protected an area of endangered rainforest thanks to Cool Earth; a charity working alongside rainforest communities to halt deforestation. Its pledge through Cool Earth goes directly towards supporting the Asháninka community in Central Peru.
It is also helping the Eden Project – an educational charity building connections with each other and the living world, exploring how we can work together towards a better future.
“I’m delighted to congratulate ONE Creative environments on their second year of Planet Mark certification. Their team are already well informed of the impacts our real estate on the planet, and the techniques to help make our buildings more efficient. Now this expertise is turned inwards, as the team has pledged to measure and reduce its carbon footprint year-on-year. We need more companies like ONE Creative environments to push the boat out and pioneer sustainable practice. Well done to their team.”
