Sustainability is core to Mightybytes’ values. Whether we’re writing about sustainable web design or how we power our digital products with renewable energy, we believe in a better future for people and planet. Good practices will help us get there.

We write often about the intersection of sustainability, design, and technology. Topics range from facilitating more sustainable design workshops and helping users make more sustainable choices to the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and our years-long quest for good green web hosting or our TEDx Talk. We also cover a variety of sustainable web design practices focused on faster performance and efficiency of digital products, such as optimizing code, enabling caching, and using CSS sprites. Finally, we regularly share internet stats about renewable energy use and the overall efficiency of sites crawled by our free web tool Ecograder.

For more information on how this plays out at our company, check out our sustainability page.
