Why make the switch?
There is no escaping the fact that we need to change - and soon. To reach the goal of Net Zero by 2050, we need to reduce our reliance on carbon-intensive materials and processes. Switching a portion of our sensitive document output to digital recorded delivery is an immediate step toward reducing our reliance on carbon. Life and pensions provider Aegon made the switch in 2019, saving an estimated 270 tonnes (CO2e) so far.

We'll change together
We're working with changemakers leading the transition to a low-carbon future - including Dr. Simon Pringle, FTRC, and Paragon. We created a set of criteria based on research by Project Rome to assess the ecological impact of the financial services industry's document output. Now we’re asking for your help. We're asking organisations to complete our impact assessment to benchmark where we're at, so we can plan where we end up.
