September Edition
Hello and welcome to this month's edition of Tech as a Force for Good.
This month we're talking about:
Why you should choose an IT partner that's committed to sustainability through carbon offsets
In the face of the global climate crisis, businesses across all sectors are recognising the urgent need to prioritise sustainability and reduce their environmental impact.
As the IT industry continues to grow and evolve, it's more important than ever to partner with a company that not only delivers exceptional services but also demonstrates a genuine commitment to sustainability.
At IT Naturally, we are proud to be leading the way in this regard, embracing carbon offsets as a key strategy to mitigate our carbon footprint and contribute to a greener future.
The role of carbon offsets in sustainability
Carbon offsets have emerged as a powerful tool for businesses looking to reduce their environmental impact.
By investing in projects that actively remove or prevent greenhouse gas emissions, such as renewable energy development or reforestation efforts, companies can effectively balance their own carbon footprint. This approach allows businesses to take responsibility for their emissions while supporting initiatives that have a positive impact on the environment.
At IT Naturally, we have made carbon offsets a central pillar of our sustainability strategy.
We understand that the IT industry has a significant carbon footprint, with data centres alone accounting for a substantial portion of global energy consumption.
By embracing carbon offsets, we are taking proactive steps to mitigate our environmental impact and support the transition to a low-carbon economy.
Our comprehensive approach to sustainability
Our commitment to sustainability goes beyond simply purchasing carbon offsets.
We have implemented a comprehensive approach that encompasses every aspect of our business operations. This includes conducting thorough assessments of our emissions to identify areas for improvement, partnering with reputable offset providers to ensure the integrity of our investments, and regularly reporting on our progress to maintain transparency and accountability.
By choosing an IT partner like IT Naturally, you can be confident that you are aligning your business with a company that takes sustainability seriously.
We are dedicated to not only reducing our own environmental impact but also helping our clients do the same.
Through our expertise and innovative solutions, we can help you optimise your IT infrastructure, reduce energy consumption, and minimise your carbon footprint.
The business benefits of partnering with a sustainable IT provider
Partnering with an IT company that prioritises sustainability through carbon offsets offers numerous benefits for your business.
It demonstrates your commitment to environmental responsibility, which is increasingly important to customers, investors, and other stakeholders. By aligning your business with sustainable practices, you can enhance your brand reputation and differentiate yourself from competitors.
Plus, working with a sustainable IT partner can help you meet your own sustainability goals and reduce your overall environmental impact.
By leveraging their expertise and solutions, you can optimise your IT operations, reduce energy consumption, and minimise waste.
This not only benefits the environment but can also lead to cost savings and improved efficiency for your business.

We’re thrilled to announce that IT Naturally has been shortlisted as a finalist in not one, not two, but THREE incredible business awards! Our commitment to creating an amazing workplace has been recognised across multiple categories, and we couldn’t be more excited.

We had an incredible time at the Louder Than Words B Corp Festival
Actions speak Louder than Words.
So we were delighted to show up at the largest-ever gathering of B Corps in the world!
The 2-day B Corp Festival was truly inspiring, impressive and impactful.
A fantastic opening from Justice in Motion , a motivational keynote from Mary Portas OBE who rightly said we are all imperfect and human, but how can we do better? And fabulous fringe events all over Oxford where we learnt, collaborated and discussed.
Day 2 looked from the outside in with great sock chat and some from Patrick Grant Community Clothing , panels hosted by B Lab UK and we even had fun in court! (Check out the video in the post below.)
We'd love to inspire you to think about how you can use your business as a force for good, just like we do.
