Blue Badge Partner3-form has reduced between 200 and 1,000 metric tons of carbon emissions in the current year. Carbon dioxide emissions, the principal cause of global warming, are an inevitable consequence of energy use. Every time an individual or organization uses electricity for lighting, fuel for transport, etc., additional carbon emissions are released into the atmosphere. 3-form has partnered with TerraPass to sponsor clean energy and carbon reduction projects that result in a verified, measurable reduction in carbon emissions.
3-form emissions reductionsAbout 3-form3form is the leading manufacturer of award-winning, eco-friendly materials and architectural hardware solutions for the Architecture + Design industry. Our innovative 3form Varia system uses ecoresin TM (40% recycled content) to encapsulate color, organic materials, textures and custom images to translucent resin panels that can be transformed into walls, dividers, doors and other architectural solutions. At 3form, we are driven to make beautiful products while minimizing our impact on Earth’s natural systems. We are working hard to eliminate landfill waste, substantially reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and make better products using fewer natural resources. We do this by building awareness and understanding, integrating environmental values into every level of operation, setting aggressive goals, and measuring results. 3-form has balanced emissions from these sources: Commute offsetEmployee commutes, whether by car or by public transport.About the TerraPass Badge ProgramOrganizations that purchase carbon offsets through TerraPass are eligible to become a TerraPass Badge Partner. Badges come in three levels, indicating the amount of carbon emissions reduced. A White Badge signifies a reduction of up to 200 metric tons of carbon emissions. A Blue Badge indicates a reduction of between 200 and 1,000 metric tons of carbon emissions. A Green Badge indicates a reduction of over 1,000 metric tons of carbon emissions. Badge Level is determined by the amount of carbon reductions sponsored within the past 365 days. Reductions that took place more than 365 days ago do not count toward Badge eligibility. TerraPass provides tools and consultations to help partners estimate their carbon footprint, but TerraPass does not certify the results of these calculations. All energy use figures are self-reported by Badge Partners, and partners are not required to balance 100% of their emissions to be eligible for the TerraPass Badge program. |
