Sustainably Green – Ambius's carbon reduction programme

During 2009, Ambius started on a journey to a more sustainable future. We have long recognized and promoted the environmental benefits of the services we offer, especially interior plants, and we are confident that they will feature in many more green building management programs in the near future.

This is all well and good, but if Ambius doesn’t manage itself in a sustainable fashion, then the benefits of our services are compromised or negated by our own practices. That is why Ambius has measured its carbon footprint in North America, the British Isles and our Pacific region (we’ll be measuring our continental European and South African carbon footprints in 2010) and will be implementing a comprehensive carbon action plan.

Ambius's Carbon Footprint

The total carbon footprint of Ambius in the six countries we measured during 2009 was a little under 22,000 tonnes CO2e. This figure was calculated using international standards by our London-based carbon management partners, dcarbon8. As expected, the bulk of our greenhouse gas emissions came from our vehicle fleet and the energy used to heat, illuminate and cool our buildings. Waste, paper and corporate travel were also important contributors to our carbon footprint, but reducing these will have a relatively small impact on our overall carbon reduction plan.

Regular Sustainably Green Updates

4-step process to Planet Positive Certification

As we progress with the Sustainably Green Program we will provide regular updates, so check back here to see how far we've got in reducing our environmental impact, which in turn will help our clients reduce their impact. There's still a fair way to go, but we've taken the first steps without compromising our range of products or high level of service.
