Greyland achieves Planet Mark
Greyland has achieved the Planet Mark Business Certification, furthering its commitment to reducing its impact on society.
The Planet Mark Business Certification is an internationally recognised sustainability certification for all organisations acknowledging continuous progress, encouraging action and building an empowered community of like-minded individuals.
"This is an incredible achievement involving the entire business," says the company's CEO Richard Dyson. "In order to achieve this sustainability certification, we've followed a robust three-step process: Measuring our impact, engaging everyone in the business and communicating our progress. We have measured our own carbon footprint and will continue to take responsibility of our carbon emissions to have a positive impact on planet and society. We are also contributing to the UN SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) as we believe that it's important, more than ever, to do more good and create a sustainable future.
"Through Planet Mark, we are proud to have protected an area of endangered rainforest with Cool Earth - a charity working alongside rainforest communities to halt deforestation. Our pledge through Cool Earth goes directly towards supporting the Asháninka community in Central Peru.
"Additionally, through our commitment to Planet Mark, we are making a charitable donation to The Eden Project - an educational charity, connecting us with each other and the living world, exploring how we can work towards a better future.
"Our entire business has contributed to our achievement in becoming Planet Mark certified, and every individual will continue to play an important role in our sustainability commitment.
"We want to continue to have a positive impact through our business and hope that we can empower our community to take climate action. We hope that you will join us in this movement for change."
