Environmental Policy

Stratavor recognizes its responsibility to minimize its impact on the environment and to contribute positively to environmental sustainability. We are committed to reducing our environmental footprint and continually improving our environmental performance as an integral part of our business strategy. Even as a growing technology company with primarily remote operations, we endeavor to incorporate sustainability into our decision-making. We will work with our clients, suppliers, and other stakeholders to promote environmental stewardship and encourage environmentally friendly practices across our value chain. Our aim is to deliver high-quality services to our customers in a manner that is compatible with protecting the planet for future generations.

The Board of Directors is responsible for ensuring this Environmental Policy is implemented effectively. However, environmental responsibility is shared by all Stratavor team members. Every employee, contractor, and partner is expected to be aware of this policy, integrate its practices into their work, and actively look for opportunities to reduce our environmental impact. We will provide guidance and encourage all colleagues to contribute ideas for improvement.

Climate Change and Carbon Footprint: Strive to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2030, aligning with science-based targets. As a largely remote company, our direct emissions are low; however, we will minimize business travel (favoring virtual meetings) and use carbon offsetting or renewable energy credits to mitigate emissions. We commit to measuring our carbon footprint annually and implementing reduction strategies.

Energy Efficiency: Promote the use of renewable energy and energy-efficient technology. We choose cloud and hosting providers that utilize renewable energy for their data centers whenever possible. Our team is encouraged to conserve energy.

Waste Reduction: Follow the principles of waste prevention, reduction, re-use, and recycling. In our primarily digital operations, this includes minimizing paper use, properly recycling electronic waste through certified e-waste recyclers, and eliminating single-use items.

Water Conservation: Although Stratavor's direct operations have limited water usage, we commit to decreasing water consumption wherever possible.

Sustainable Procurement: Integrate environmental considerations into our procurement decisions. We endeavor to work with suppliers and vendors who demonstrate environmentally responsible practices.

Travel and Commuting: Since Stratavor's workforce is remote, daily commuting is largely eliminated. We will track business travel emissions and set internal policies to avoid unnecessary trips by using video conferencing and other collaboration tools.

Awareness and Engagement: Foster a culture of environmental awareness. We provide information and resources to our employees and contractors on how to work more sustainably.

Compliance and Beyond: Ensure compliance with all relevant environmental legislation and regulations. Our commitment goes beyond compliance to proactively adopting best practices.

We will monitor our performance against the above objectives on a regular basis. This includes tracking key metrics such as energy consumption, carbon emissions, and waste/recycling amounts. The designated sustainability lead will compile an annual report to the Board summarizing our environmental performance and progress toward targets. Where appropriate, we will communicate our environmental efforts and progress externally to demonstrate our commitment to ESG principles.

Environmental sustainability is an ongoing journey. Stratavor is committed to continuously improving its environmental management. This policy, and the objectives within it, will be reviewed at least annually and updated as necessary. We encourage feedback from employees and stakeholders on our environmental practices.

By following this Environmental Policy, Stratavor seeks to operate in an ecologically responsible way that supports the long-term sustainability of our business and the planet.
