Our sustainable commitments

LESS PAPER, MORE TREES! We rigorously manage all our printed documents and brochures to avoid wasting paper as much as possible. We print only when necessary, and prefer black and white and double-sided printing. We print our publications on recycled paper or paper from sustainably managed forests, preferably from Imprim’Vert -certified printers. ECORESPONSIBLE PURCHASING Whether it’s for the snacks offered to the children during our events or for the purchase of our office supplies: we prefer to buy eco-labelled products or products from local circuits.

SELECTING AND REDUCING OUR WASTE Selective sorting has been introduced at all our reception points. Composting has also become part of our routine! At events organised by the Tourist Office, no more plastic cups: we offer you our eco’cups. REDUCING OUR WATER AND ELECTRICITY CONSUMPTION We avoid leaving electrical appliances on standby, and we closely monitor heating consumption. We pay attention to ourwater consumption and are regularly reminded to be as exemplary as possible.

GREENER DIGITAL As part of its eco-responsible approach, the Grand-Figeac Tourist Office has designed its website with a view to reducing its carbon footprint as much as possible. Hosted by Green-certified OVH, the site benefits from precise monitoring of its consumption by our service provider Raccourci, which is also actively involved in carbon offsetting by replanting trees in La Rochelle. Each year, this scheme offsets more CO₂ than is consumed, to also contribute to the overall impact of users. In concrete terms, the new site has reduced its digital footprint by more than a factor of three. To achieve these results, a number of best practices have been incorporated: limiting the number of fonts and images, avoiding automatic videos, optimising formats and thinking about sustainable development-oriented content, such as highlighting soft mobility. A similar approach has been adopted on our social networks: limiting the number of posts, limiting videos and sharing low-definition images. All these choices reflect our desire tocombine digital performance with respect for the environment.
