Together we can achieve more. That is why our employees actively contribute to making Interzero a more sustainable company. Since 2016, our Sustainability Ambassadors have regularly organised Sustainability Week, involving employees in joint clean-ups, sharing economy campaigns and commuting programmes that reduce CO₂. The urban cycling campaign is also very popular. Its aim is to cycle as many kilometres as possible in three weeks to contribute to climate protection and raise awareness of the need to expand the city's cycling infrastructure. In 2017, Interzero employees covered almost 7,500 kilometres on bicycles. This helped to reduce CO₂ by around 1 tonne, and save €675 that would otherwise have been spent on buying fuel.

Companies have a key role to play in stopping global warming. What actions should they take to reduce global warming? The strategy adopted by the Road to a <2° Economy initiative is: "We achieve more if we work together." Through an interdisciplinary approach, it unites diverse industries, specialisations and perspectives to make progress towards a common goal. Interzero, together with around 40 other companies, is an active participant in this pioneering project, which was launched by the 2° Foundation and WWF Germany.

As experts in the field of the circular economy, we transfer our expertise by building a dialogue with researchers, business and the general public. One such activity is the Centre for Sustainable Corporate Governance, a joint initiative of the business and R&D sectors based at the University of Witten / Herdecke in Germany. There, we support the recycling working group, as well as the development of the 'More Sustainable Business Food' standard.
