Environmental & digital commitment
Digital technology’s environmental footprint: a major challenge
The impact of digital today :
- Cloud servers account for 2% of global CO2 emissions, a figure that doubles every 4 years
- 15% of the world’s servers are idle
- Each employee generates an average of 24 kg of electronic waste per year
As a player in digital transformation, SQORUS places eco-responsibility at the heart of its strategy.
Our mission is to transform our impact: we take concrete action to reduce our environmental footprint and that of our customers through :
- Optimizing our digital infrastructures
- Eco-design of our solutions
- Responsible management of our equipment
Testimonial
A word from the Chairman
Macià Roca
President – SQORUS
Our commitment to reducing our carbon footprint, promoting Green IT practices and raising awareness among our teams is fully in line with our raison d’être: to have a positive and lasting impact on our ecosystem. It’s a collective commitment that each and every Sqorusian makes on a daily basis.
Our climate action
Our environmental action areas for action at every level
From measuring our carbon footprint to the eco-design of our solutions and the responsible management of our waste, we take a holistic approach to maximizing our positive impact.
Analyzing and reducing our carbon footprint
In the face of the climate emergency, SQORUS is taking concrete action. In 2023, we took a decisive step forward with our first carbon footprint with our partner ORKI. This step is part of our ambitious goal of achieving carbon neutrality by 2030, in line with European targets.
This annual analysis is more than a simple audit: it's a unifying moment that mobilizes our entire ecosystem.
Our CSR team regularly organizes :
- Awareness-raising webinars
- Participatory workshops
- Debates on climate issues
- Eco-gesture training sessions
Responsible waste management
" In nature, nothing is lost, nothing is created, everything is transformed " - Antoine LAVOISIER
This historic quote guides our approach to waste management. Beyond compliance with the AGEC law, we are committed to a proactive approach to resource recovery.
At SQORUS we distinguish between two types of waste to be sorted:
- Office waste: raising awareness and optimizing selective sorting.
- Specific waste related to our status as a digital transformation firm, consisting of various IT equipment.
Beyond sorting, an educational approach:
- Educational workshop
- Awareness-raising workshops
- Inter-departmental challenges
- Best practice guides
- Measuring our impact
Having control over a portion of the waste generated by our activities enables us to fine-tune the life-cycle performance of our services and anchor our transition process towards a more virtuous model.
Responsible digital design
In the age of digital transformation, eco-design and Green IT are no longer options, but imperatives. At SQORUS, we turn these challenges into opportunities, by combining technological innovation with environmental responsibility.
As a firm specializing in digital transformation, we have a duty to encourage research into more virtuous digital tools and better practices for using them.
Our Green IT team, created in 2022, is leading this transformation and imagining the models of tomorrow:
- Life cycle assessment (LCA) of solutions
- Optimizing digital resources
- Development of eco-designed solutions
- Measuring environmental impact
- Raising employee awareness
- Charter of best practices in responsible digital
