OUR COMMITMENT

Sustainability & Environmental Policy Statement

AudienceView is committed to reducing our environmental impact and building a greener future.

We strive to minimize waste, reduce carbon emissions, and promote best practices for sustainability across our operations and partnerships.

The Environmental Benefits of Remote Work at AudienceView

AudienceView’s remote-first approach is a key driver of our sustainability efforts.

By operating as a remote company, we significantly reduce our environmental footprint in several impactful ways.

Reduced Greenhouse Gas Emissions

Remote work eliminates the daily commute for most employees, leading to a substantial decrease in transportation-related emissions. Studies show that remote workers can have a 54% lower carbon footprint compared to onsite employees, and even hybrid workers who work from home two to four days a week can reduce their carbon footprint by 11–29%. This translates to cleaner air and less traffic congestion in urban areas.

Lower Natural Resource Consumption

With fewer people in physical offices, there’s less demand for resources like water, electricity, and office supplies. Remote work means less energy spent on heating, cooling, and lighting large office spaces, and less waste generated from single-use items and packaging.

Increased Energy Savings

Remote employees typically use less energy at home than would be consumed in a large office building. Simple actions—like using energy-efficient devices, unplugging electronics when not in use, and running appliances during off-peak hours—further reduce individual and company-wide energy consumption.

Less Air Pollution and Higher Air Quality

Reducing commuter traffic leads to improved air quality, benefiting both the environment and public health. Cities with clean air attract better talent, offer a higher quality of life, and foster happier, healthier employees.

Reduced Fossil Fuel Usage

Remote work decreases reliance on fossil fuels for transportation and office operations. This shift supports global efforts to combat climate change and helps businesses meet their carbon emissions targets more easily.

Digital Sustainability

AudienceView encourages digital best practices, such as clearing out unnecessary emails and files to reduce data center energy use, streaming video in standard definition for virtual meetings, and supporting green energy plans where available.

Paperless Solutions

Our ticketing software solutions offer paperless ticketing and digital solutions that further minimize resource use and waste.

By embracing remote work, AudienceView not only supports employee well-being and flexibility but also advances our commitment to environmental stewardship. We continually seek new ways to maximize the sustainability benefits of remote work, and we encourage our team and community to adopt greener habits—at home and at work.

Sustainable Office Practices at AudienceView

While our remote-first approach delivers significant environmental benefits by reducing commuting emissions and resource consumption, we also recognize the importance of sustainable practices in our physical office spaces.

For those times when our team gathers in person, AudienceView is committed to maintaining eco-friendly operations and supporting green initiatives where possible, including at HQ.
