It’s Earth Day again. A day to come together and reflect on our impact on this beautiful planet. It can be a day of hope and inspiration as we look towards the future with curiosity and dedication. It can also be a day full of trepidation, hopelessness, and climate anxiety. For many, Earth Day will pass with little more than a post shared to an Instagram story…before carrying on with the day. For one local business, this is their time to shine.
What about the people that want to make a change, but they don’t know where to start? When thinking about reducing their carbon footprints, a lot of businesses turn to recycling and cycling to work…but what they don’t know is that their website could quietly be contributing to climate change. Growing a business should not come at the cost of the environment. A business should be growing their impact, not their carbon footprint.
Chances are that a website is either run on green energy or fossil fuels. ReforestHosting uses 100% renewable energy and with their free migration service are offering a powerful opportunity for those interested in reducing their carbon footprint (and that of their business) to take control and make the switch. To celebrate Earth Day and to help more people to take positive action, they’re planting an additional 50 trees for every new sign up from 19th April –26th April 2023.
“As a business, we love to support other budding enterprises to grow their impact whilst minimising their carbon footprint. Not everyone realises the damage that the internet is doing to the planet, with the carbon emissions nearly equalling that of the aviation industry, the work that we do has never been more important.
We know that responsible & ethical business is on the rise, which excites us. It’s so nice to be around others that care about the planet and its people, as well as their businesses – let’s hope that we can inspire and empower them to take this green step and to run their websites on green energy and plant some trees! Earth Day is the perfect opportunity to make positive change, as it’s already on people’s minds. If this is something you’ve been thinking about for a while, now is the ideal chance!” says co-founder, Bethan Unsworth.
