Phoebus Software Limited (PSL) has announced plans to reduce its environmental impact through a new partnership with Positive Planet.

As part of PSL’s environmental, social and governance (ESG) policy, Positive Planet will work with the firm to calculate its carbon footprint, invest in offsetting and identify a roadmap for carbon emissions reduction.

On behalf of PSL, Positive Planet will plant 20,970 trees in environments that support communities by creating shelters, habitats and jobs. Positive Planet also supports the collection of plastics from oceans to ensure that its investment in carbon offsetting is making a practical difference.

PSL has been a carbon neutral company for more than 12 years but said it is now striving to become carbon zero. To bolster the firm’s environmental efforts, it has created an internal “green team” with six volunteers from across the business.

“We have reduced our carbon emissions to almost zero but where we still have carbon dioxide output we offset these emissions through planting trees and removing plastic from the oceans,” commented PSL chief sales and marketing officer, Richard Pike.

“Through the partnership with Positive Planet, we have a roadmap in place to reduce carbon emissions over the next three to five years to enable us to reach our carbon zero target.”

Pike added: “The green team will raise awareness of practical actions that we can all make in the office and at home to reduce our carbon footprint; and have a positive environmental impact in line with PSL’s ESG strategy.”
