PLANET – Acting on climate change.
We aim to reduce the environmental impact of our activities by engaging our ecosystem in a collective dynamic of impact reduction.
Following the completion of its latest carbon assessment, Artefact has committed to a reduction plan covering all emissions generated (Scope 1, 2 and 3).
Acting on climate change
In 2022, Artefact completed its first group-level carbon assessment, establishing a baseline of 28,968 tCO₂eq across all three scopes. The results confirmed a strong concentration of emissions in Scope 3 (98%).
Building on this assessment, Artefact has committed to concrete reduction targets: −42% on Scopes 1 & 2 by 2030 and −25% on Scope 3 by 2030, with a long-term objective of −90% by 2050.
To reach these targets, we have structured a reduction roadmap around 5 key initiatives:
- Sustainable Media — Integrating carbon measurement into our media activity, which represents the largest share of our emissions.
- Green Mobility — Reducing the carbon footprint of business travel through a group-wide travel policy prioritising low-emission alternatives.
- Responsible Purchasing — Engaging our key suppliers on carbon criteria and integrating sustainability into our procurement processes.
- High-Carbon Offices Reduction — Transitioning our highest-emitting sites to renewable energy sources.
- Green IT — Reducing the environmental footprint of our digital infrastructure and extending the lifespan of IT equipment.
