How Zoomforth is reducing its carbon footprint
Here are some of the ways in which we’re offsetting our carbon footprint.
We have no physical office to
heat, light and maintain
We invest in global
environmental projects
We use cloud services to
minimize the need for printing
We travel only when essential
We plant a tree for every new user
We use laptops rather than desktops
How we can help you reduce
your carbon footprint
Zoomforth allows you to create a wide range of digital communication, drastically reducing the need for weighty printed documents.
Our data analytics will tell you how many pages you have created on Zoomforth, and how many visitors you have had to your sites. In turn, you can then calculate how many printed pages you’ve saved.
One Tree Planted
In conjunction with One Tree Planted, we plant a tree for every new Zoomforth user. So, if you purchase a license to use Zoomforth, we will plant a tree for each user seat you buy.
It’s a wonderful initiative and one we are proud to support.

Terrapass
We rarely need to travel but when we do, we take the most environmentally friendly transport available.
We offset emissions from any flights we take, using Terrapass. This initiative funds environmental projects like reforestation, farm power, and landfill gas capture.

Charities we support
For the last two years, we have supported Médecins Sans Frontières as our chosen company charity.
This year, we will be supporting UNICEF.
In addition to the main charities we also encourage our team members to:
Use Zoomforth as a force for good, by creating microsites for local causes they care about
Take paid time off to volunteer in their local communities
