Homedics Sustainability: Our Commitment to a Greener Future

An online destination for all things wellness, Homedics is all about enhancing physical and mental health for everyone. So, it makes sense to show the same care and kindness to the planet. Home to all 8 billion of us, the earth provides us with everything we need to live healthy, fulfilling lives – so we should be doing the same in return.

We’re taking sustainable steps towards protecting our environment and preserving the future of the planet - and we’ve made strides already. While we’ve achieved some of our green goals, there’s still a lot happening behind the scenes (like implementing a carbon reduction plan, for example). By 2050, Homedics plans to have reached its target of net zero in its mission to combat the effects of climate change

Net zero is achieved when the number of emissions released by man-made activities is matched by the amount of carbon removed from the atmosphere. To achieve this, organizations can reduce their emission output (from vehicles and factories, for instance), and any remaining emissions can be balanced with the same amount of carbon removal carried out. Many companies work with reforestation organizations to remove carbon from the atmosphere. You can find out more about our work with One Tree Planted below
