Commitment
At Delve Health, we recognize the urgent need to address climate change and its
impact on our planet and communities. We are committed to taking bold and
meaningful action to reduce our carbon footprint and contribute to a sustainable
future.
With this in mind, we declare our commitment to becoming a carbon-neutral
organization.
Our Carbon Neutral Pledge
Our approach is based on measuring our emissions, reducing them wherever possible,
and offsetting residual emissions using high-quality projects—supported by ongoing
collaboration, transparency, and continuous improvement.
Guiding principle: Reduce first, then offset what remains.
1) Measuring Our Carbon Footprint
We will conduct a comprehensive assessment of our greenhouse gas emissions,
including:
- Scope 1: Direct emissions from our operations
- Scope 2: Indirect emissions from purchased electricity and heat
- Scope 3: Indirect emissions across our supply chain and business travel
We will use internationally recognized standards and methodologies to ensure
accuracy and transparency in our calculations.
2) Reducing Emissions
We will implement a robust strategy to reduce greenhouse gas emissions across all
scopes. This includes:
- Implementing energy-efficient practices in our offices
- Optimizing transportation and logistics operations
- Minimizing waste generation
- Promoting responsible consumption across the organization
We will continually review and update our processes to identify additional
emission reduction opportunities.
3) Renewable Energy
We will prioritize renewable energy sources for electricity needs and explore
options such as solar, wind, and geothermal power to transition toward a cleaner
energy mix and reduce reliance on fossil fuels.
4) Offsetting Residual Emissions
Despite our best efforts, some emissions may be unavoidable. We are committed to
offsetting residual emissions by investing in high-quality carbon offset projects
that support initiatives such as:
- Reforestation and nature-based solutions
- Renewable energy development
- Community-based projects that promote sustainable livelihoods
5) Collaboration and Transparency
We will engage employees, partners, and stakeholders to raise awareness about
climate change and the importance of carbon neutrality. We will collaborate with
industry experts, organizations, and policymakers to share knowledge and best
practices, and to advance sustainable solutions.
We will report our progress regularly and transparently to demonstrate our
commitment to achieving carbon neutrality.
6) Continuous Improvement
We recognize that the journey toward carbon neutrality is ongoing and requires
continuous improvement. We will regularly review and update our targets,
strategies, and initiatives to align with the latest scientific research and
global best practices.
Closing Statement
Tackling climate change is a collective responsibility, and Delve Health is
dedicated to doing its part to build a sustainable future. By pursuing carbon
neutrality, we aim to mitigate our environmental impact and encourage action
toward a low-carbon economy.
Together, we can create a healthier and more resilient planet for future
generations.
