Shrinker Digital is proud to have launched www.webzero.earth as place for people and organisations to not only come and learn about the polluting nature of the Internet but to also take action in reducing the environmental impact of the planet's 6th largest CO2 emitter (Yes, you read that correctly).

We are delighted that our official offsetting partner is the team THE VAYYU FOUNDATION™.

Chris Desai and his wonderful team run a replanting project in Bali, which not only help to protect vital coastal regions, but also sequester up to 4x MORE CO2 than normal trees.

There simply is no other carbon offsetting project with more credibility and efficacy than the one Chris and his wonderful team offer.

If you are looking to offset your carbon emissions, please visit www.webzero.earth

Did you know??

The Internet and the World Wide Web (WWW) are often used interchangeably, but they are not the same thing.

The Internet is a global network of interconnected computer systems, while the World Wide Web is a system of interlinked hypertext documents accessed through the Internet. The Internet provides the infrastructure for communication and information exchange, while the WWW provides a way to access and view that information through a browser.

In simple terms, the Internet is the infrastructure, while the WWW is a service built on top of the Internet.

I have had the pleasure of working with Jenny Cross and the team at Cross Productions Limited recently to help digitally offset some of their carbon emissions through their website.

Can you imagine the amount of electricity that would be required to boil 1,927 kettles of water?

That’s what the Cross Productions website was responsible for, releasing 128.73kg of CO2 emissions into the atmosphere each year.

This post isn’t to shed a bad light on their website. Many local businesses have the same if not worse results than this!

We just want to share with you how simple the solution is! Shrinker Digital UK reduced the size (but not the quality) of the website which helped to reduce their digital carbon emissions by 30%.

If we had waited any longer to put these changes into effect, imagine how damaging that would be to the environment in the long run?

Turning off all your plugs isn’t enough.

Recycling isn’t enough.

Saying you’re sustainable... you’ve guessed it, isn’t enough.

It’s time to take action and realise how easy it is to take digital sustainability seriously.

Message me if you’re ready to get started with your own website report.

It’s time for a reality check…

How often do you come across a business who claim to be sustainable due to their tree planting process?

“For every purchase you make with us we will plant a tree!”

“Work with us and we will plant three trees!”

The likelihood is you will see this quite a lot online.

But what you probably didn’t know is the amount of co2 taken up by forests is around 0.5kg per square metre per year. This is equivalent to 500 tonnes per square kilometre.

For the UK, to cancel out the greenhouse gases it produces each year (930 million tonnes co2 equivalent) it would need 1.86 million square kilometres of forest, this is eight times bigger than the total area of the UK.

To stay within 1.5 degree Celsius of global warming, net emissions need to be halved by 2025 in the UK. In this time scale, trees planted will still be saplings and not yet absorbing much co2.

Offsetting is not the answer.

We need to do better.

There are so many ways you can become more sustainable alongside looking into plants or office recycling.

One of the easiest places to start is with digital sustainability and your website… which is something the team and Shrinker Digital can help with.

Let’s talk! There’s no better time to act than now.

We at Shrinker would like to pass on our deepest condolences to the family and close friends of Leicestershire Police's former Chief Constable, Simon Cole, who sadly passed away just recently.

He was always a great supporter of our work and was clearly someone who genuinely cared for Leicestershire and those in its communities.

Simon Cole had announced his retirement in January after 12 years in the role.
