Digital Practice and Environmental Sustainability
We believe digital technology and environmental sustainability can complement and support each other.
Digital technology is a valuable tool for organisations to reduce their carbon footprint and practice sustainability.
Digital technology and environmental sustainability are often mutually reinforcing.
GeoStories will use digital to practice environmental sustainability across a range of activities.
GeoStories will use digital to contribute to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and so contribute to positive global change.
Our Sustainable practices help to contribute to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) and work towards a net-zero future. Utilising the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals as a framework, GeoStories aims to contribute to positive global change.
