Environment
Autumn Animals is working hard to be Climate Positive by the end of 2025.
Accountability
Our approach is backed by the Vet Sustain Greener Veterinary Checklist. Vet Sustain is a veterinary consultancy who advise veterinary practises on how to become more sustainable and climate responsible.
Our Approach
✔ We are planting one tree per patient we had to say goodbye to, via 1 Tree Cards
✔ Of course, we know that offsetting is not the solution to Climate Change. That is why we use reusable materials where possible and limit single use materials
✔ All our employees are incentivised to travel to Autumn Animals patients by (e-) bike, (e-) scooter or public transport. We encourage them to do so by paying for their travel expenses if they use one of these modes of transport
✔ We use an e-cargo bike to transport equipment and deceased pets after your pet's home euthanasia, meaning negligible carbon emissions
✔ We encourage environmental stewardship in caregivers by advising them about the pros & cons of certain medication and insecticides, especially in the final stages of their animal's life
✔ We are always looking for a more environmentally friendly way to provide after passing care, than cremation
✔ Autumn Animals is a paperless company
✔ And last but not least, our goal is to be climate positive by the end of 2025
