Climat protection
The tree donation sticker on your joining module symbolizes that we have donated a tree for this joining module. Why did we do this? Because we see it as our ecological responsibility to contribute to the protection of the environment and to the curbing of the climate change. The forest fulfills many functions for nature and for us. It is the habitat for countless plants and animals, cleans the air and provides shade. It supplies wood as a raw material, produces oxygen and stores CO2.
We have therefore decided to support the two organizations "PLANT-MY-TREE®" and "BOS Lebenswald” this year. Lebenswald.org is a project by BOS. PROMESS has been supporting charitable organizations for many years and makes donations every year to various initiatives and projects suggested by our employees. This project was initiated by the climate scouts at PROMESS and is being implemented by them. It is one of several projects and campaigns for sustainable management in our company.
PROMESS collects rainwater for flushing toilets in two of three buildings. A photovoltaic system produces around 100,000 kWh of electricity per year, and a green roof also cools the building in summer. Employees from various departments have come together to form climate scouts and work out measures for resource-saving production through to the desired climate neutrality. In order to offset the previously unavoidable greenhouse gas emissions, PROMESS donated 70,000 euros for regional climate protection projects and the non-governmental organization Ackercrowd .
