Terrapass
Logicworks’ carbon offset program provides customers a way to balance out carbon dioxide emissions generated from their complex hosting and managed database services.
About the Program
Our partnership with TerraPass is an initiative in Logicworks’ sustainability platform. Logicworks has several energy conservation activities already in practice including the architecture of our office headquarters. Our new 14,000 square foot office, located on the Avenue of the Americas in New York City, integrates an eco-friendly design to maximize the use of natural light, live plants, and a range of recycled and environmentally-friendly materials. Additionally, Logicworks transports its employees and servers between data centers using only hybrid vehicles.
Benefits to Clients
While Logicworks is purchasing offsets for all of our servers under management, we are allowing both new and existing customers to participate in the program. Customers can signify their participation by displaying a Logicworks/Terrapass carbon neutral logo on their Website or any marketing materials.
Our partnership with TerraPass also provides a simple and effective way for Logicworks to act immediately on climate change, thus better serving our clients. Since datacenters are one of the fastest-growing contributors to carbon emissions worldwide, the growth of the Internet and corresponding processing requirements will continue to vastly outpace any gains in power efficiency made by hardware manufacturers. Logicworks clients can rest assured that they are partnering with an organization that supports the development of clean power, allowing them to be good citizens of the planet without having to curtail business growth.
About TerraPass
TerraPass is the leading consumer retailer of carbon offsets. TerraPass funds clean energy and efficiency projects, which reduce greenhouse gas emissions so that individuals and businesses can balance out their own emissions of carbon dioxide, the principle greenhouse gas responsible for global warming. The partnership with Logicworks will help to reduce over 4 million pounds of greenhouse gas emissions by the end of 2008, and well over 5 million in 2009.
