Environmental, Social, and Governance
Evergreen isn’t just our name. It’s a commitment to our concern over the findings from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).
Despite our boutique size, we’re still committed to environmental responsibility, and our actions are a testament towards a more sustainable company, and sustainable future.
Our Commitment to Planetary Health
At Evergreen, we draw inspiration from initiatives such as the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) and The Nature Conservancy, which emphasize the urgent need to protect ecosystems and biodiversity. Our business practices align with the principles of conserving natural resources, supporting sustainable development, and addressing the challenges posed by deforestation, ocean degradation, and climate change. Every choice we make—whether reducing energy consumption or curtailing paper use—is a deliberate step towards creating a positive environmental impact.
Building a Sustainable Future Through Action
The Race for Water Foundation reminds us of the devastating consequences of plastic pollution on our oceans, while the Ocean Race’s “Racing with Purpose” initiative highlights the importance of sustainability in both personal and professional arenas. Inspired by these efforts, we pledge to eliminate waste where possible, champion recycling, and encourage eco-friendly practices across our partnerships. Beyond our direct actions, we love collaborating with suppliers and clients who share our commitment to sustainability and environmental stewardship.
A Future-Focused and Inclusive Workforce
Echoing the World Health Organization’s push for well-being in all aspects of life, our remote work / four-day-workweek model isn’t just a way to reduce carbon emissions—it’s a commitment to human health and sustainable work-life balance. With a flexible and work culture that encourages up-skilling, we aspire to create a future of work that nurtures both individual potential and the environment, reflecting insights from The Climate Reality Project on the interconnectedness of social and environmental well-being.
Reducing Our Carbon Footprint with Purpose
Transitioning from a traditional office setup to a fully remote work environment is just one aspect of our carbon reduction strategy. Guided by the principles of the Rainforest Alliance, we prioritize energy-efficient technologies, virtual operations, and responsible procurement practices. Our focus on reducing emissions and supporting sustainable lifestyles exemplifies our belief that business success and environmental responsibility are not mutually exclusive goals but must go hand-in-hand for the future of everything.
