Sustainability
Environmental projects: Your & my- climate.
Sustainability: within reach.
Do you sometimes ask yourself: What can I do to improve the climate? We are also concerned with this question, and not just since today. In 2017, we were the first promotional product retailer to offer our customers the option of ordering their promotional products in a climate-compensated way for an additional charge. But that’s not all: since 2022, we have been making a climate impact contribution for all orders based on the calculated CO2 footprint. We are also the first to do this without you as a customer having to dig deeper into your pockets – it’s part of our customer-oriented DNA. But where do the contributions go?
The forest: invaluable.
We all love it and often use it to recharge our batteries, switch off, do sport or celebrate: the forest. Its function and value as a retreat for humans and animals is universal. That’s why we deliberately chose two forest projects from myclimate, the non-profit organization with Swiss roots, when selecting our carbon offset projects.
One in Switzerland with a focus on biodiversity and one in Tanzania to support people, animals and forests and promote sustainable forest management.
These projects are not just about reducingCO2 emissions, but also about helping people to be healthier and animals to preserve their natural habitat.
The Prättigau: Biodiversity before productivity.
The forest – priceless and irreplaceable as a sustainable resource of wood, protection against natural disasters and a habitat for a diverse flora and fauna.
Thanks to the reduced use of wood, the 13,000-hectare forest area in the Prättigau/Davos region offers many animal and plant species the opportunity to develop in a protected and diverse way.
In addition, its function as aCO2 reservoir makes it an important pillar of local and global climate protection.
Tanzania: coexistence of forest, people and animals.
They do exist: Win-win-win situations.
One of these is the myclimate project in Tanzania.
Here, investments are made in training the indigenous population to protect against poaching and to ensure compliance with the land use plan.
The project guarantees the local population a long-term and regular income.
So everyone benefits: forest, people and wildlife.
Environmental protection has been on our minds ever since bb trading was founded.
For more than 20 years, we have been distributing our promotional products as environmentally consciously as possible.
