Collectiv Food Carbon Footprint - Greenly

Senior Sustainability Manager at Collectiv Food

At Collectiv Food, we recognise that the first crucial step towards reducing harmful environmental impact lies in the data - the ability to measure what truly matters. That’s why, we’ve partnered with the experts at Greenly to support our first company-wide carbon assessment, representing our first major step towards our 2030 Net Zero goal. 

What can you tell us about your company? 🔍 

We’re a bunch of innovators, collaborators and fanatical foodies on a mission to build the food ecosystem of tomorrow, starting with an efficient and sustainable food supply chain serving the heart of our cities.

Why did you carry out a carbon assessment?

We cannot improve what we do not measure. That’s why the main purpose of the carbon assessment with Greenly was to establish our emissions baselines across Scopes 1-3 needed to support our Net Zero goal set for 2030.

Embracing sustainability at Collectiv Food means partnering with the best. That's why Greenly was our choice for measuring our company-wide carbon footprint for the first time. 

Their robust methodology, covering scope 1, 2, and 3 analysis, set the stage for effective action while Greenly's platform wowed us with its smart UI – supporting a smooth data collection process through to developing insights effortlessly. But it's not just about tech; they helped us engage our team, making sustainability a shared journey.

Collectiv Food’s carbon footprint takes into account direct and energy emissions (Scope 1 & 2) but also indirect emissions caused by service providers and services used by the company (Scope 3). Adding up all the emissions, Collectiv Food had a carbon footprint of 5987t CO2e in 2021. 

The annual emissions of 600 British people

The amount of CO2 sequestered annually by 540 hectares of forest

At Collectiv Food, our climate strategy stands strong on three pillars that drive our commitment:

1. Measure and reduce: We're all about numbers that matter. We're working to refine our annual carbon assessments to pinpoint exactly where we stand. Then, armed with these insights, we're diving into creating a carbon reduction plan with clear-cut targets. Our aim? Achieving Net Zero by 2030.

2. Engage and Connect: Sustainability isn't a solo act. We're reaching out, building bridges, and fostering connections within our ecosystem. Communication is our catalyst for change.

3. Offsetting with Certified Impact: As part of our forward plan, once we've maximized our reduction efforts, we're diving into certified GHG offsetting and sequestration projects. These aren't just offsets; they're verified, impactful changes that resonate with our commitment to Net Zero.

Our immediate steps are charged with purpose, geared towards making opaque, emissive food supply chains a thing of the past. Together, we’re shaping the food ecosystem of tomorrow.

Platform.sh Carbon Footprint - Greenly

We've decided to commit to fighting climate change, and to reduce CO2 emissions. To do this, we've decided to act, and act quickly. We believe we provide instant long-term benefits to our customers, drastically reducing their digital carbon footprint. We're continuing to work closely with our clients, partners and ecosystem to consolidate our approach and reassert our deep commitment to the environment.

Tell us about the Platform.sh adventure 🔍

Platform.sh is the cloud platform engineered to simplify building, managing, and scaling your websites and applications. Whether you have one application or one thousand, our Platform-as-a-Service (Paas) empowers your developers to take the load off of infrastructure management, and allow us to do the heavy lifting for you. No training required. Test fearlessly with instantly cloned environments, deploy with confidence knowing your application will work as it should from the start, and manage your infrastructure from one, unified, secure platform. 

We are dedicated to reducing the effects of our activity on the environment and through our greener hosting MODE strategy, we’re making that a reality. As a Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS), we help our clients minimize the environmental impact of their applications by hosting them in the cloud, but for us, greener hosting doesn’t stop there. Through the four phases of our MODE strategy - measure, optimize, deploy, and educate - we help reduce impact further. We are utilizing accurate certified third-party carbon auditing, high-density computing and application optimization, location-based hosting, and consistent investment in research and development. You don’t need another server, we just need to optimize what we have.  

Total for cloud computing (clients): 2495 tCO2e/year

Scope 3: 466 tCO₂eq (new: included remote work) 

Total for cloud computing (clients): 1903 tCO2e/year

Platform.sh’s carbon footprint (without our client’s cloud contribution)

Platform.sh’s clients’ Cloud audit : 1227 tCO2e/year

Using Platform.sh’ 2020 data, Greenly performed a density study to see how efficiently Platform.sh uses CPUs in the cloud compared to a standard deployment (AWS Elastic Cloud 2).

Platform.sh density was on average 12x more dense for their offering with the highest mutualization possible (grid) – -this means 12x less electricity was used to run an equivalent workload. More specifically, the breakdown was:

And 5x more dense for clients that requested low mutualization of resources (dedicated). 

This reduction in resource use, means less electricity is used by the datacenter, and ultimately lower CO2 emissions. On average for the globe, this translated into a 9x lower CO2 emission factor compared to the “bare mental scenario” due to Platform.sh superior density offer for their highly mutualized approach and 6x lower emissions for the less mutualized approach.

emlyon business school Carbon Footprint - Greenly

Founded in 1872 by the CCI de Lyon, emlyon business school welcomes 9,020 students and 125 nationalities over 6 campuses around the world (Lyon-Écully, Saint-Étienne, Shanghai, Paris, Bhubaneswar and Mumbai). emlyon draws on a faculty of 172 international professors and researchers and a network of 190 academic partners around the globe to offer programs of excellence that are open to the world. The school has a community of 38,600 graduates in 130 countries. A Société à Mission since July 2021, emlyon’s goal is to : “shape enlightened people who effectively transform organizations for a more just, sustainable, and environmentally-friendly society”. Its early makers pedagogy closely links action and reflection. It centers the combination of skills and social responsibility at the heart of its training programs to bring together the best of the socio-economic and academic worlds.

Director of Social and Environmental Engagement 

“We strongly believe that every organization must act in the face of the climate crisis. As a Société à Mission since July 2021, emlyon has centered environmental issues at the heart of its strategy. We have carried out an initial carbon assessment which has enabled us to identify concrete pathways for improvement, and to define an ambitious greenhouse gas emission reduction pathway for the coming years. We trust the emlyon community to achieve the objectives we have set ourselves and to contribute together toward a sustainable global energy balance”

Considering the alarming IPCC reports and the clear interest of students in socio-ecological issues and their initiatives in this regard, and considering the importance of training enlightened citizens, responsible stewards who are aware of the social and moral consequences of their actions, it is crucial that emlyon business school adopts a strong environmental strategy through an ambitious climate plan and a commitment that extends throughout all aspects of the school from teaching to research. 

Thus, the school is committed to radically lower its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by following a plan in line with the Paris Accords.  More specifically, this translates to the goal of achieving Net Zero (a balance between emissions created and captured by carbon skins on a global scale) by 2050.

emlyon has already carried out an inventory of our GHG emissions. The school’s carbon footprint was 11 000t CO2 in 2022. This has allowed us to better structure our environmental policy and to develop our action plan to reduce our emissions over the long term.

PayFit- Carbon accounting Greenly

When it comes to the environment, it's not a question of choice or belief, it's the greatest challenge of our time. The first step is obviously to understand our own environmental impact, so that we can better assess and improve it.

<h2>ITV - Background & Objectives 🔍</h2><p>PayFit is a scale up that is dedicated to revolutionizing and simplifying the process of payroll management for businesses. The objective is to have a solution that is fast, intuitive and automated, which allows employers to easily and independently manage payroll and human resources, saving precious time. Their platform also allows employees to access a dedicated online space.</p><div class="container_img"><img src="https://uploads-ssl.webflow.com/6232f79b68d15d3d9b69c096/6241b1580bff40d5e183d549_61faa92ac9cd5738d7accc48_payfit.jpeg" loading="lazy" /></div><h2>ITV - What motivated your involvement with PayFit? 🤔</h2><p>At PayFit, social impact is at the heart of our vision. We do everything we can to have a positive impact on the world we live in, that's our ambition. And that's PayFit's mission: to make PayFiters proud of what we do for society, to preserve the environment, and also to promote diversity and inclusion. Regarding the environment, more specifically, we are all aware that it is not a question of choice or beliefs, but that it is really the biggest challenge of our time, and that obviously the first step is to understand our own environmental impact, to better assess and improve it.</p><p><strong>Why Greenly?</strong></p><p>When we decided to do our carbon assessment, we realized that there are two schools of thought today. On the one hand, there is the classic school of using a consultancy firm, and on the other hand, there is a start-up solution like Greenly. In this overview of these two solutions, we have realized that both have advantages and disadvantages. The advantage of consultancies is that they are focused on support, offering a very detailed analysis, but they are also more expensive and time consuming<br>. &nbsp;A start-up, however, will stand out for its speed. What interested us for this first assessment was to have a fairly quick overview of our impact, so that we could start acting quickly.</p><p>‍</p><h2>Update on PayFit's carbon footprint 📊</h2><p>Our first assessment gave us a quick overview of our emissions, which allowed us to distinguish PayFit's main emission items. We realised the importance of Scope 3, although it is not currently mandatory to assess it. However, at PayFit, it is the most important emission item. Since we offer SaaS, we also noticed that the second most important emissions item was Digital. We were surprised by the low percentage of emissions that travel occupied, even if this result is linked to the context of the year 2020, which has strongly contributed to reducing the use of transport. We will therefore pay attention to this in the years to come. Finally, our third emissions item concerned fixed assets. We also think that there is an interesting potential for reduction that we will be able to take advantage of.</p><p>‍</p><div class="container_img"><img src="https://uploads-ssl.webflow.com/6232f79b68d15d3d9b69c096/6241b18e36f5c271fa437b4e_61faa93ecd32936be76d83bc_kazuend-19SC2oaVZW0-unsplash-1-(1).png" loading="lazy" /></div><h2>Payfit wants to reduce its emissions 📉</h2><p>Defining the action plan is underway. To achieve our objective, we intend to involve managers for each major emission item. We are therefore going to work together with the departments concerned to define the possible and impactful reduction actions, while respecting the 2021 development and growth objectives that have been defined. I am quite convinced that it is not just me, as the CSR manager, who can implement reduction actions on my own. You have to involve all the stakeholders in the company. The objective is to reconcile the response to climate and environmental issues with the growth of our company. To do this, we must already have a better understanding of our uses, such as in terms of actions for the use of our servers and our online advertising, but also in terms of thinking about how to have a more responsible purchasing policy</p><div class="container_img"><img src="" loading="lazy" /></div><h2></h2>

Volt Café Bruleries was born from the meeting of two coffee enthusiasts in the spring of 2019 in Soorts-Hossegor.

Here, we love simple things: tasting, learning, innovating, sharing.

Our ambition is to create a life place by the ocean combining a roasting workshop and a tasting place for these terroir products selected with respect for the grower and the consumer.

Today, Volt is gathered around a team animated by the same values and by the desire to make you discover our most beautiful creations, the result of our know-how and the human adventure that we share with our partners.

Producing quality coffees while contributing to limiting our environmental impact is for us an essential value and a real objective.

We also aspire to join the B-Corp community and to establish Volt as a true mission-driven company, committed to people and the planet.

In order to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions, it is essential to measure them beforehand. That's why we decided to calculate our carbon footprint using Greenly. This has allowed us to better structure our environmental policy and develop our action plan to reduce our emissions in the long term.

Greenly's proposed measuring solution is simple and intuitive. Moreover, it is a recognized market solution and has obtained the label French Tech Green 2020. This is why we have chosen to work with Greenly.

Volt Café Brûlerie's carbon footprint update 📊

The carbon footprint of Volt Café Brûlerie takes into account not only direct and energy-related emissions (Scope 1 & 2) but also indirect emissions caused by service providers and services used by the company (Scope 3). By adding up all the emissions, Volt Café Brûlerie had a footprint of 223t CO2e in 2020.

Volt Café Brûlerie wants to reduce its emissions 📉

The action plan definition is in progress. To achieve our goal, we plan to involve managers for each major emission category. We will therefore work together with the relevant departments to define possible and impactful reduction actions, while respecting the development and growth objectives for 2022 that have been set.
