Planet Mark

The Paris 2024 Organising Committee's rent, reduce, reuse, and recycle approach to this year's games has set a new standard for global sporting events. Paris 2024 - Comité d'organisation des Jeux Olympiques et Paralympiques de 2024 aims to reduce carbon emissions from the London 2012 and Rio 2016 games by 50%, with a budgeted 1.58 million tCO2e—equivalent to powering over 200,000 homes' energy usage for a year.  How will they achieve this? By measuring previous games' footprints, the committee pinpointed carbon hotspots such as construction, furnishing, catering, and travel, applying innovative solutions to reduce their impact and conserve resources. For example, previous Olympics, such as London 2012, saw significant carbon emissions from new buildings. This year, by renting 95% of the infrastructure, Paris 2024 is substantially lowering its carbon footprint. At Planet Mark, we have a saying. You can't manage what you don't measure. That's why we are proud to support businesses by calculating their carbon footprints so they can make informed decisions about reducing them. Leveraging carbon data to support your sustainability journey is the only way to make measurable and meaningful carbon cuts. Ready to minimise your environmental impact?

Last Friday, our dedicated team took a break from the race to tackle climate change for a different kind of race. The egg and spoon race.   We started the day by deep-diving into our purpose, reaffirming our commitment to making net zero accessible for all.   As Steve, our CEO, highlighted, we've come a long way this past year, and we're excited to keep the momentum going while maintaining our passion and culture.   After the strategy session and a giant picnic in Victoria Park, the real fun began with our sports day! The atmosphere was electric as we competed in the egg and spoon race, ring toss, three-legged race, sack race, and the much-anticipated doughnut-eating competition.   We also enjoyed a friendly football match, several rounds of frisbee, and plenty of laughs. The doughnut competition, as always, was a highlight—but we'll spare our colleagues' dignity and not share those photos!   Congratulations to our Sustainability Consultant, Charlotte Bowles and the entire social committee for keeping the games running smoothly and to Team Orange for their victory! Dionne Welton, Ruari Phipps, Cassie Bell, Hannah Dean-Wood, Sally Dear.
