Even though we’re a micro-company we’ve always been committed to operating a sustainable and environmentally responsible company. Over the past 15-years this has influenced everything. From the clients we’ve worked with, to the coffee we buy.

So, as a MRS Company Partner, we’re proud to have signed the MRS Climate Pledge.

On the 5 June 2024, the Market Research Society (MRS) launched the new MRS Climate Pledge (replacing the MRS Net Zero Pledge):

By signing the pledge, Border Crossing UX commits to the four MRS pillars of Climate Action as an annual framework to move towards net zero as soon as we reasonably can. The four MRS Climate Pillars we’ve committed to are:

Tracking

We commit to calculating our carbon emissions each year and making improvements in data collection and calculation processes, to support greater data quality in the long-term.

Reduction

We commit to making tangible changes each year that should result in year-on-year reductions (per staff member) – in emissions (measured in tCO2) and energy use.

Transparency

We commit to completing the MRS’ Annual Climate Pledge Tracking Survey and disclosing our annual carbon footprint and a summary of reduction actions.

Collaboration

We commit to supporting conversations and call outs by staff, partners and clients about environmental concerns and viewpoints.
