Along with initiatives to incorporate nature into the design phase of new buildings, Pinterest pledges to use 100% renewable electricity.
This is across all of its locations worldwide by the end of 2023.
Since 2018, Pinterest has collaborated on a reduction in emissions with Amazon Web Services (AWS). By 2025, AWS data centres will be entirely powered by renewable energy.
The overall reduction in Scope 3 emissions saw a drop from 169,563tCO2e in 2019 to 137,299tCO2e in 2021.
To promote sustainable practises, the company unveiled PinPlanet on Earth Day 2022.
As well as this they set up “Pinspiration Group” of more than 400 employees.
