The carbon footprint of marketing and creative

FAQs

Your questions answered.

What contributes most to a digital agency’s carbon footprint?

For most digital agencies, emissions come primarily from Scope 2 (electricity in offices or co-working spaces) and Scope 3, including cloud services, remote working, business travel, and outsourced suppliers. Importantly, media buying and ad delivery, such as running LinkedIn or Google Ads, also generate emissions through data processing, server usage, and energy consumption.

How can we track emissions if our team is remote and we run campaigns on behalf of clients?

Seedling helps you measure emissions from home working, cloud tools, and campaign delivery. This includes estimating the carbon impact of digital advertising—like impressions served on social platforms or programmatic ads, so you can account for both your internal footprint and client-facing activities.

Why should a digital agency bother with carbon reporting?

Clients increasingly expect their partners to demonstrate sustainability credentials, especially in tech, finance, and public sectors. Measuring your footprint supports procurement requirements (e.g. PPN 06/21), B Corp certification, and positions your agency as forward-thinking, without needing a dedicated sustainability hire.
