Plant Trees
|
| |
|
Trees are one of the biggest and oldest plants on earth; they are essential for saving and protecting nature.
We understand how essential these historic giants are for our ecosystem and the part they play in protecting the planet. As such, we subscribe to Ecologi - an environmental organisation with the goal of creating a positive impact on the environment and climate. To create this positive impact, our monthly subscription goes towards:
- Carbon reduction projects
- Tree planting
Through Ecologi, Allwag has planted 123 trees in 10 months. Join us and help build a better, sustainable future.

Cut Down on Private Transport
|
| |
|
With emissions rising every year, your personal carbon footprint can be reviewed. The BBC revealed one of the biggest contributors to a personal carbon footprint is private transport; the average petrol car releases 180g of CO2 every kilometre.
Encourage employees to carpool, walk/cycle or commute on public transport to work. Implementing this, will mean less cars on the road, and a reduced carbon footprint.
|
| |
Reduce, Reuse and Recycle
|
| |
|
Minimise the negative impact of using single-use plastics and the devastating impact it has on our planet. Act now by reusing and recycling.
Switch from single-use plastics to reusable products e.g., drinkware and stationery. We have a wide range of reusable items made from sustainable materials to help close the loop.

Studies show that house plants have a positive impact on wellbeing because they reduce stress and purify air.
A desktop garden is an interesting initiative for employee wellbeing and promoting sustainability. House plants have many benefits, but the sustainable benefits of reducing carbon dioxide levels and keeping air pressures low is something to shout about!
Buy your employees a desktop garden to promote these positive benefits.
