Climate Positive
Charter

Corporate responsibility Charter

Our Corporate Responsibility Charter is our strategy on how we interact with all our stakeholders and the wider environment in a socially responsible way. We are focused on reducing our Carbon Footprint. Some of the ideas we have implemented are:

Use of LED lighting throughout our buildings.

Insulated ceiling tiles to reduce our energy consumption.

Using an outsourced datacentre to house our IT systems in Helsinki powered by solar.

Running a paperless office where possible.

The introduction of electric cars for employee use.

Climate Positive Charter

Environmentally responsible

Here at VAT Loans we are making steps to become more environmentally responsible. We are doing this whereby WestWon Limited, our associated company , is teaming up with Ecologi, a business dedicated to reducing the levels of our planet’s carbon pollution.

Climate positive member

In addition to this, we are joining Ecologi’s Climate Positive Workforce. This means every member of the WestWon Limited team will become climate positive. This is done by all our carbon emissions being assessed, calculated, and then offset by the planting of the applicable number of trees until we are carbon neutral as a company.

What we do

There has been a lot of emphasis placed upon our current climate crisis – and quite rightfully so. Subsequently, it has driven us to making this a priority of ours. We have been a paperless company for nearly a decade now. We have LED lighting in all our offices and insulated ceiling tiles to reduce our energy consumption. But we think it’s time to step up our game. Therefore, we plan to plant a tree for every month of a lease agreement. This way, we can work together in achieving carbon neutrality for our planet.

Social media campaign

Our green scheme will be advocated through the WestWon website, as well as their email newsletters, across our social media platforms and blog posts uploaded to their website with updates on the WestWon Woodland and any other contemporary environmental changes.

Our goals

Our five-year goal from the 1st January 2022 to the 31st December 2026 is to:

100,000

Plant 100,000 trees

 7,500

Remove 7,500 tonnes of CO2 from the atmosphere

Overall, we hope that we have proven how serious we take the current climate crisis our world is facing. We therefore hope it inspires you or your business to get involved and help make the environment a better place to live. You can view our climate positive page here.
