Our Environmental Commitment
Investing today in a more sustainable future.
For CIS & MET, sustainability means concrete choices: we have invested in planting trees and generating solar energy for our offices. Two different projects with one shared commitment: reducing our impact and helping protect the environment.
01 / Trees and Reforestation
The roots of change.
We have supported tree planting in Italy and, with Treedom, in Ghana. An investment in tree growth, biodiversity and long-term environmental value.

02 / Renewable Energy
Solar energy, directly in our offices.
We have installed south-facing solar panels to generate part of the electricity used in the CIS & MET offices. This gives us direct access to renewable energy and reduces the electricity drawn from the grid while the system is generating power.

03 / Measuring to Improve
Understanding our impact is the first step.
The CIS & MET website previously published an indicative estimate of annual emissions for an IT company of around 15 people in Emilia-Romagna: 18,283 kg of CO₂/year, covering office consumption, commuting and digital services. This is neither a certified inventory nor a current measurement of the company's emissions.

CO₂/year — previously published indicative estimate; neither a certified inventory nor a current measurement.
Daily Travel
Commuting is one of the items included in the previously published indicative estimate.
Infrastructure and Cloud
We also recognise the indirect impact of using external IT services.
