Sustainability, environmental awareness, and responsible action are at the heart of Ibiza Spotlight. This is reflected in our internal measures and practices, and through our dedicated programme in collaborating with and supporting local businesses.
Like most businesses and individuals, we make sure to minimise and recycle our waste and reduce unnecessary power consumption. We also continuously reassess how, as a company, we can go greener and make more sustainable choices moving forward.
Sustainable workplaces
To avoid making unnecessary journeys to an office, all our employees are offered the option to work from home. Along with this, three of our team members' houses have been converted to solar power, including the home where our administrative HQ is based.
Meanwhile, some other members of staff have migrated their year-round energy requirement to companies which provide 100% renewable electricity.
Furthermore, we have been fortunate to partner with theHub coworking space for our team-building activities and weekly meetings. theHUB is a business with a strong social conscience, through supporting community projects, protecting the local environment, and reducing waste. Importantly, 85% of the electricity consumed at theHUB is generated on-site thanks to their massive PV installation by Solar Rey.
We are also proud to share this workspace with another of our long-term collaborators, defenders of the environment and promotors of all things sustainable, IbizaPreservation.
On top of this, one of our company cars is fully electric and fuelled entirely by sunlight! We hope that this is just the start, as the islands of Ibiza and Formentera move closer to phasing out carbon-fuelled vehicles completely over the coming years.
Shining a light
We support and promote the actions of individual businesses and organisations on Ibiza that are already eco-friendly or are on the way to becoming so (and want to consciously do more), and our eco-label is designed to recognise just that.
Whilst it is not a certification, we do require that all recipients demonstrate that they are undertaking pro-environmental measures in key areas, as well as committing to doing more in the future.
This type of work deserves to be communicated to an audience. As the largest website on Ibiza, we believe we are duty-bound to support the positive environmental actions of the people here. We are doing this via our platforms, including our guides, magazine, events calendar and newsletter - we hope the combination of our voice and reach can help effect change by inspiring others.
We will continue to keep this page updated and keep you posted on our own eco-journey. If you know of any admirable green initiatives happening on Ibiza, we would love to hear from you.
Eco-friendly businesses
Here is our list of the eco-friendly businesses on Ibiza that have already taken action and confirmed their commitment. We hope to be adding even more to this list in the future.
