Phase2: first US digital agency on the Health Sector Climate Pledge

The Challenge

The Health Sector Climate Pledge gave Phase2 six months to quantify scopes 1, 2, and 3 and produce a reduction plan — with its digital-sustainability reputation on the line.

The Solution

Carbonhound ran an efficient onboarding, automated the data ingestion, and worked with the team on emission sources and a baseline year.

The Outcome

1st — US digital agency on the Health Sector Climate Pledge

Phase2 has credible emissions data behind its net-zero 2050 goal and keeps momentum on the pledge while advising healthcare brands on sustainable digital products.

* The Health Sector Climate Pledge was launched on Earth Day in 2022 by the White House and Department of Health and Human Services. This voluntary commitment encourages private sector healthcare organizations to prioritize climate resilience and emissions reductions. As part of this pledge, companies commit to:

• Reduce their GHG emissions by 50% by 2030, and achieving net-zero emissions by 2050;

• Conduct a GHG emissions inventory including Scope 1, 2, & 3 emissions within six months of signing; and

• Develop and release a climate resilience plan to address climate-related risks for groups in their communities.

“Carbonhound has been instrumental in helping us achieve these goals with precision and efficiency.”
