The mobile phone industry is responsible for an estimated 1% of all the CO2e emissions globally, releasing 580 million tonnes of CO2e annually. Approximately 85% of a mobile phone’s CO2e emissions come from manufacture; so repair, refurbishment and ultimately considerate recycling all benefit the environment.
We have a commitment to reducing our carbon emissions, innovating to create more sustainable repair processes and generally doing our bit for the planet in every way each of our TMT First family can.
As part of the commitment to ‘our planet first’ TMT First is actively engaged in a number of programmes to help reduce emissions and also to positively contribute to the environment.
You’ve already helped us plant 33077 trees, offsetting more than 80 tonnes of CO2.
We partner with Ecologi who provide simple, impactful ways to collectively reverse climate change. They work with businesses like us to fund climate projects and help us compensate for our carbon footprint.
We’re proud to join 80+ pledgers as part of the Million Tree Pledge collective. We are going to be planting a million trees over the next nine years and we can’t do that without your help.
For every one of you that spends £5 over £150 for a repair, we will plant 40 trees. You will be able to track how you’ve contributed, through a personalised portal that breaks down the number of trees/sub forests you’ve helped fund. It also calculates the estimated CO2e offset.
