Carbon projects

White Badge Partner

field15 has reduced up to 200 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.

field15 has partnered with TerraPass to sponsor clean energy and carbon reduction projects that result in a verified, measurable reduction in carbon emissions.

About field15

field15 is a green web design and development company based in Brooklyn, NY. We've been in business since 1998, and while that may make us seem like dinosaurs in this business, we’re always adding new technologies to our fields of expertise and we haven’t lost the excitement of launching a new site or project with a client. We love looking at things from new directions while putting our years of experience, creative integrity, and technical excellence behind every project that we do.

Over the years, we’ve worked with everything from non-profits to for-profits to Federal agencies, and with each group of people, we’ve learned valuable skills that we can use for the others. For example, we can help make any website accessible to people with disabilities (which every Federal website has to allow) or use the fundraising channels accessed by non-profits for other types of companies. We enjoy sharing all these tricks with our clients, and they’re always happy for the extra know-how.

Along with our unusually deep pool of experience and expertise, though, what truly sets field15 apart from other IT providers is our absolute adherence to honesty and respect for our clients and their goals. If we believe that we aren't the right people for your job, we'll tell you up front so that you're not wasting your time or being sold the wrong solution for your problem. By hiring field15, you can be sure that you're working with people who have only your best interests at heart.

About the TerraPass Badge Program

Organizations 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.
