We look to avoid, minimize, or mitigate our impacts across our operational footprint. ENVIRONMENT Our Approach Our environmental footprint reflects how we manage day-to-day operations, including shipping branded merchandise to clients, heating and cooling our office space, dealing with end-of-life product, purchasing office supplies, travel and addressing our waste, water, and carbon impacts. We look to avoid, minimize, or mitigate our impacts across our operational footprint. Our suite of policies, including our Sustainable Procurement Policy, our Environmental Policy and our End-of-Life Policy guide our work. We need to decarbonize our business model and we need to move fast. We know it won’t be easy and that we need to go beyond the ‘low hanging’ fruit to implement meaningful tactics. Climate risk not only threatens our business, but it also threatens our communities, our health and our livelihoods through increased weather events, air pollution and water scarcity (to name just a few).
