Estimating your carbon thumbprint

Mobile networks in Australia are estimated to create more than a whooping half a million tonnes of CO₂ every year. Your estimated portion, which is the CO₂ created by your mobile network data usage, is your Carbon Thumbprint.

Calculate the estimated environmental impact of your mobile data use by using the Carbon Thumbprint app.

Reducing your e-waste

Globally, people binned 53 million tonnes of e-waste in 2019. And, since most e-waste contains both valuable and toxic materials, we need to bring that number down. We have five tips to help cut your e-waste (some will even help you save money – like getting a refurbished phone from the Second Life Shop).

Team work, dream work

We can’t help the planet alone. That's why we work with amazing partners who also care about the planet.

Australia is filled with people doing great things to live green. We want to support them however we can.

That includes our team. Our BE Green group promotes doing good by the planet at home and at work.
