Action for Scalable Change
1. In 2021, we worked alongside our partner Tourism Cares to develop a program for business leaders to drive sustainability through their organizations. Looking specifically at impact measurement and purpose-driven business practices, the 6-month program engaged a cohort of both NTA and USTOA members. The collaborative nature allowed leaders to share learnings and best practices, be challenged and build on their knowledge through peer mentorship.
2. Acting on the climate crisis requires the collaboration of both the public and private sectors. Governments play a critical role in creating policy and investing in infrastructure that supports climate action, especially the G20 leaders. This year we supported the We Mean Business Coalition Letter to G20 leaders at COP26.
3. We don't ever want our team to have to choose between voting and their paycheck. Not only do we have paid time off for team members to participate in the democratic process, but we've also lent our voice to the business community by joining Time to Vote and Civic Alliance.
4. MaCher stands against policies that limit people’s health, independence and ability to fully succeed in the workplace. Restricting access to comprehensive reproductive care, including abortion, threatens the health, independence and economic stability of our employees and customers. We are proud to support Don't Ban Equality for these critical reasons.
Waste Reduction Partnerships
Climate Action Partnerships
We also partner with SeaTrees for our wider carbon compensation program, 'Opt in for our Future'. With support from our clients, we calculate and then compensate emissions from the products that we make for them. For the 2021/22 year, we have purchased 2,645 tonnes of carbon credits through their REDD+ projects in Cambodia, Kenya andColombia, compensating for 100% of MaCher’s scope 1 and 2 emissions and our relevant scope 3 emissions.
We know that to remove GHG emissions, we need to make changes to further reduce emissions and also directly invest in carbon sequestration. Offsets alone cannot solve our climate crisis. Other examples of how we are working to reduce our carbon footprint can be found throughout this report.
Community Partnerships
We are addressing these barriers by providing real work experience and a network before they start considering their career moves. We hope this will provide a better foundation for access to new opportunities when they are ready to embark on their career and that some of them will join our own team some day.
In the last 2 years, we provided one-on-one mentoring to 13 students through programs with Creative Futures Collective and Santa Monica College. Homelessness is, unfortunately, a significant issue in our local neighborhood. We've donated funding and have spent time volunteering to support Safe Place for Youth, Venice, an organization providing much needed care and community support for vulnerable young people experiencing homelessness.
