Our Sustainability Mission:

For us at 7Mind, mindfulness goes beyond a personal experience. We want to act mindfully towards our fellow (human) beings and our planet. We do this by inspiring more sustainable choices – on a personal and company level. We work to continuously reduce our impact on the environment, raise awareness and create a space of support and exchange on sustainability.

What we do to lower our impact on the environment

Green energy & smart heating

For our office, we purchase 100% green power and we control our heating with Smart Thermostats to save energy.
Habit building & communication

We continuously raise awareness amongst 7Minders about sustainable habits - through events and our (home) office policies.
Green finances and investing

7Mind is customer of the oldest sustainable bank in Germany and offers a green corporate pension scheme to employees.
Vegetarian catering

While 7Minders can bring the food they love to the office, snacks and meals offered in our Headquarters are always vegetarian and often vegan.
Green office supplies

We use recycled paper for printing brochures and documents. Where possible, we buy stationary from recycled materials.
Hybrid office

We allow 7Minders to work from home with no limits and, as a result, save office resources and energy. We assist with tips to preserve energy at home.
Involving employees

In our Sustainability@7Mind group, 7Minders look for more ways to reduce our CO₂ footprint and bring sustainability to their peers.
Learning with others

As a member of LfCA, we build networks to better understand how we can contribute more to effective climate protection.

7Mind's CO₂ Footprint

We calculate our CO₂ footprint since 2020 and have already learned a lot in the process.

About 50% off our emissions relate to mobility. The reason: People around the world are working to make 7Mind better and better. We limit travel to a minimum, but this business model causes emissions.

In allen Scopes (1) sind wir 2022 für 77,4 t CO₂-Emissionen verantwortlich gewesen und haben diese über zertifizierte Klimaprojekte kompensiert.

In Anlehnung an die Methodologie der Science Based Targets' initiative (SBTI) (2) haben wir Reduktionsziele für unsere CO₂-Emissionen bis 2030 festgelegt.

1. Trotz aller Bemühungen konnten wir bisher (Stand: Oktober 2023) noch nicht Daten für alle unsere Emissionen in Scope 3 erfassen, da diese häufig von den anbietenden Firmen nicht zur Verfügung gestellt werden. Dies betrifft zum Beispiel cloudbasierte Internetservices.

2. Unsere Ziele sind nicht offiziell von SBTI verifiziert.
