Sustainability Policy
The key points of its strategy to achieve this are:
- Be leaders in sustainable video production.
- Endeavouring to be carbon neutral by August 2026.
- Will track all emissions through a carbon calculator, with the aim to eliminate any emissions where possible.
- Unavoidable emissions will be offset (at £9 per tonne of CO2 plus VAT) through donating to reputable charities that are regenerative in nature.
- We aim to inform our clients and potential clients of the environmental impact of their project.
Transport:
- We will minimise car travel where possible through encouraging crew/client without heavy equipment to use public transport.
- We will look for travel options that are more sustainable, and not fly to locations within the UK.
Spaces:
- We will look to shoot in locations that run on certified green energy. If not possible, these emissions will be offset.
Materials:
- We will endeavour to buy props and wardrobe sustainably where possible.
- We will endeavour to track and offset the carbon used in ordering items online.
Food & biodiversity:
- We will aim to encourage clients, cast and crew to order veggie/vegan options.
- Non-dairy milk only used in the office.
- We recognise biodiversity loss as a serious and pressing issue. Where possible we seek to actively improve biodiversity by using probiotic, refillable cleaning products.
Disposal:
- Both in office and on set we will aim to recycle as much waste as possible, separating general waste, recycling, and compostable food waste.
- Unused props and wardrobe will be reused, returned or donated.
Resource consumption:
- We monitor resource consumption in our activities and attempt to procure the least impactful options.
Social:
- We invest in carbon literacy - having environmental workshops to educate our staff on the impact of video production on the environment and how to minimise our carbon footprint in our professional and personal lives.
We are always looking for ways to improve our impact on the environment. If you have any suggestions or would like to chat, please email our head of production Robbie (robbie@nusastudios.com) who would love to discuss!
