t33: a "Carbon Neutral" company


Since 2010, t33 has taken care to reduce its Carbon footprint and achieve a good level of environmental sustainability. 

Since 2010, t33 has taken care to reduce its Carbon footprint and achieve a good level of environmental sustainability . To reach these goals, t33 has been estimating the CO2 emissions from various company activities over time.

Until 2020, the typology of emissions had not changed significantly during the time. Most of them were due to employees/members business trips (mainly by plane and train), to employees/members commuting and, to a lesser extent, to natural gas and  electricity consumption.

After the Covid 19 pandemic, since 2020, commuting has been reduced, while the smart working has grown considerably.  In this context, a significant part of the CO2 emissions currently comes from the use of the internet, cloud platforms and all other digital technologies, which have an impact that cannot be anymore overlooked.

Business trips, almost zero during the Covid period, have  again  played a relevant part in the  emissions  since 2022.

Our gas supplier has currently offset its emissions, so the t33 emissions from gas consumption are no longer counted.

Following the above considerations, or the year 2023, t33 has estimated CO2 emissions equal to 23 tons.

In order to reach carbon neutrality, each year t33 firstly adopts specific practices for an internal reduction of its emissions with the aim of limiting the overall emissions produced. However, considering its peculiarities, t33 is not able to eliminate its emissions completely through internal green practices and it needs to rely on offsets mechanism too.

t33 has decided to neutralize its emissions for the year 2023 through carbon credits coming from good agricultural practices in Italian territory.. The credits used were certified by the third-party body ICIM SpA following the collaboration with Agatheia Srl.    
         
The credits purchased completely neutralized the tons of CO2 that the company emitted in 2023.
