As a company, we don’t create many carbon emissions, but there are some we haven’t yet learnt how to avoid. So we’re posting our carbon impact for May 2020-2021, and we’re calling on other companies to calculate theirs! 👣 Check out our thread below for more info 👇

To calculate our footprint, we recorded lots of things! E.g. - miles of train, car, bus & tube journeys - weight & distance of deliveries - wattage/length of energy use e.g. time on laptops, length & no. of participants on Zooms - items bought first-hand e.g. rehearsal snacks

To calculate the cost of emails, streaming & purchases, we used statistics from 'How Bad Are Bananas?' by Mike Berners-Lee. To calculate the cost of transport, shipping & energy we used Climate Care's calculator, though we won't be offsetting with them: climatecare.org/calculator

To calculate our Zooms' impact, we used Utility Bidder's calculator: utilitybidder.co.uk/business-elect… Impact is calculated by participants & length, so there wasn't space to list these above. Our calls were: 41 hrs, 2 ppl 207 hrs, 3 ppl 11 hrs, 4 ppl 37 hrs, 5 ppl 5 hrs, 30 ppl Wow! 😵‍

A big cost was materials we bought first-hand to build our energy-generating tech. Our tech could save us tonnes CO2e in its lifetime, but we won't make any more after our dance-floor - even if that means only working in buildings with renewable energy suppliers as we upscale! ☀️

You can also see our digital impact. If you’re interested in learning more, check out Julie's Bicycle report on sustainability in the digital age: juliesbicycle.com/wp-content/upl… And there’s lots of advice online on cutting down your own digital carbon impact 👉 bbc.com/future/article…

Because our shows were streamed, this year we had no emissions from audience transport. But usually it's the biggest cost we've got. Audience travel has been shown to produce 41% of London theatre’s emissions & 78% of the carbon footprint of shows touring regionally! 🚗

We’ve calculated our impact to identify where we still produce emissions, so we can target reduction in those areas in 2021-22. If you have any questions about how we calculated our impact - or want to calculate your own, email us at [email protected]!

This year, we will offset* this impact by paying to restore peatland in the UK. *Offsetting means investing in projects to reduce CO2e equivalent to what you produce There are many issues with offsetting. To find out more, head to: ienearth.org/wp-content/upl… globalecoguy.org/the-world-need…
