How we're making an impact
At MediaLab, we believe in sustainable digital practices. From optimizing cloud storage to reducing office waste, we're committed to making our operations as eco-friendly as possible.
🌿 Sustainable cloud & storage management
Media files take up a massive amount of digital space, which in turn requires energy-intensive data centers. We actively manage our storage by archiving and deleting unnecessary files, preventing excess digital waste. By using auto-scaling technology, we ensure that our servers only run when needed, minimizing idle energy consumption.
💻 Green IT & software efficiency
The way we develop and store digital content matters. We optimize video encoding to reduce unnecessary storage space and improve efficiency without compromising quality. Additionally, we are exploring best practices in green software development, such as reducing redundant code, and ensuring efficient processing to lower energy consumption.
🚲 Eco-friendly commuting
A greener commute makes a big difference. That's why we have an e-bike plan for our employees and encourage public transport instead of cars. Our hybrid work policy also helps cut down on daily travel, reducing overall emissions.
♻️ Waste reduction & recycling
Going paperless is just the beginning. We actively reduce food waste in the office and have recycling policies in place to minimize landfill contributions. Every step, no matter how small, helps build a more sustainable workplace.
📊 Transparency & reporting
Sustainability efforts need to be measurable. We use the DPP sustainability calculator to track our progress and set clear reduction targets. Additionally, AWS carbon reporting allows our customers to see the environmental impact of their data usage.
Through these commitments, we are working towards a future where digital media doesn't come at the cost of the planet.
