Sustainability policy
How we run this, and what we will not claim
SRS Credit is a guide to carbon credits and how they appear in sustainability reporting.
This policy sets out what we actually do, how we report, and the claims we will not make.
Our footprint
A small, digital-only business
We have no factory, no fleet and no warehouse.
Almost all of our direct footprint is the electricity behind our servers and the devices we work on.
What we do about it
Four commitments
We aim to keep pages light, because fewer heavy scripts and media files mean less energy per visit.
We meet online by default and travel only when meeting in person genuinely matters.
Where we have a choice of supplier, we prefer those that publish their own emissions data.
We review this policy once a year, and whenever anything material about how we work changes.
How we report
The standards as our reference
We are a small private company, well below the size at which Streamlined Energy and Carbon Reporting applies, and not a listed company.
We still use the UK Sustainability Reporting Standards as our reference for how a company should think about climate-related risks and emissions, so the habits are in place long before any obligation is.
What we will not claim
No neutrality claims, no figures we cannot evidence
We do not describe ourselves as carbon neutral or net zero.
We will not make an environmental claim we cannot evidence.
The rules on green claims reach marketing as much as reporting, and green claims in go-to-market explains why vague words like “eco-friendly” are the ones that get challenged.
Why a carbon neutral claim is harder to stand behind than it was is set out in carbon neutral certification.
Who owns this
Ownership and review
Our founder owns this policy.
When we need specialist input we bring it in part-time for a defined piece of work — someone found through a fractional recruitment agency — rather than hiring full-time for a need that is part-time.
