Simon Jersey & Ecologi: Working together on Carbon offsetting

Simon Jersey is proud to partner with Ecologi to help offset our carbon emissions. As businesses aim to become more ecologically sound, Ecologi is helping us make the most of it as we focus on developing our workwear profile as a sustainable retail brand.

Who is Ecologi?

Co-founded by CEO Elliot Coad and Chief Design Officer Lucy Jack, Ecologi provides a simple and impactful way to reverse climate change collectively. They facilitate the funding of carbon offset projects and tree planting around the world.

Ultimately, their mission is to reduce 50% of global CO2 emissions by 2040 and responsibly plant billions of trees every year.

What have we achieved in sustainable retail since partnering with Ecologi?

Simon Jersey’s commitment to sustainably produced and managed workwear is benefitting greatly from its collaboration with Ecologi. Here are the facts:

• Firstly, Simon Jersey has been able to offset all our CO2 climate impact from inbound goods and – in turn – effectively grow our own forest.
• Additionally, Simon Jersey contributed to several tree-planting projects across the world. These tree-planting locations for sustainable retail branding include Brazil, Kenya, Tanzania, and Madagascar.
• Moreover, the impact of the carbon we generate in our office spaces will be offset across planned projects.
• Plus, we’re launching a colleague opt-in program that will allow our team to offset their personal climate impact from activities such as individual travel into the office.

How does our Ecologi webpage work

To be honest, it’s a fun webpage to navigate. For instance, scrolling through can lead you to the variety of trees our collaboration has led to. Click on a specific tree, and a wealth of details about this planting pops up:

• Team Responsible for Planting the Tree.
• Tree Species.
• Identification Number.
• Location of the Tree.

Some projects go beyond tree planting as well. For example, Simon Jersey’s efforts are assisting with capturing methane in India on a project designed to reduce emissions and generate energy in India.
