Welcome to our annual impact report! As I reflect on the progress Carma has made over the past year, I am filled with pride and optimism. While there is always more we can do to positively impact our planet and communities, I remain committed to our mission of building a business that contributes to a better future.
At Carma, we believe that collective action is the key to creating lasting change. As you read this report, I hope you feel inspired to join us in this important work. By working together, we can make a real difference and create a brighter tomorrow for all.
One of the highlights of this year has been welcoming new team members. We are proud to have hired 3 apprentices, 1 veteran, and 2 new starters, with a third of our team being women, this a great achievement due to lack of women in tech . It has been a privilege to work with these talented individuals and invest in the next generation.
We have also forged many valuable partnerships, attended expos, and secured investment, all of which have helped us build a strong foundation for the future. And when we're not selling tree planting days or subscriptions, we're hard at work building our climate tech to make it even easier for businesses and consumers to make a positive impact.
Our vision to remove 1 billion tonnes of CO2 from the atmosphere is well underway, and we're thrilled to be making progress towards this goal.
Thank you for taking the time to read our report, and for your ongoing support.
Together, we can create a better world for ourselves and future generations.
