One thing we promised ourselves when we launched Dahms Technik in 2019 was that the Company would be a vehicle through which we can do real practical good in areas that are important to us - in Engineering and the Community.

We took the first step down the road to becoming a carbon neutral company this week by donating to Australian Organisation Greenfleet. It is important to us that we be a carbon neutral company from our very first year of operation and achieve it in a way that provides clear benefits in the regions where we operate. We minimise our environmental footprint as much as possible by using technology to provide our services remotely and establishing our office in our local community not the distant Brisbane CBD. We will offset the emissions that we cannot eliminate through carbon offset credits with Greenfleet and support their reforestation work in Australia.

Greenfleet is a leading not-for-profit environmental organisation committed to protecting our climate by restoring Australia’s forests. Greenfleet plants native bio-diverse forests to capture carbon emissions and help fight the impacts of climate change.

We owe a big thank you to Lauren Jensen at Pangolin Associates for patiently taking us through the whole process, and we’re looking forward to completing the journey at the end of the year with carbon neutral accreditation through the Australian Federal Government’s Climate Active Program.

If you’re looking for more information on the work Greenfleet does and the Australian Government’s Climate Active Program you’ll find plenty here www.greenfleet.com.au and here www.climateactive.org.au.

Cheers for now

Matthew
