We are committed to constantly improving the tools that we offer to clients to help them evaluate their media carbon impact and take steps to reduce or offset them. Firstly we focused on measuring display advertising but we are currently testing other channel models for: social(across platforms, like Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and Twitter), streaming-video (including CTV, YouTube), dooh (All digital out-of-home including transient and fixed screens) We are also investigating ways to further reduce our infrastructure carbon impact by moving to more energy efficient ARM processor chips and by moving our hosting to regions which have more of their energy supplied through renewables. With our Scope3 integration, our next step will be going beyond domains to measure the impact of social and app data, and we can’t wait to roll out these processes.
- Reducing absolute Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 84% by 2025 and absolute Scope 3 emissions – including media buying – by 50% by 2030, both from a 2019 base year.
