Our Story
Individuals united to create a more sustainable and inclusive web and help purpose driven organisations succeed.
The four of us first met in 2022. Jesse and Chris had just founded Enverse Labs, a sustainable software agency, and Jonathan and Jamie were both working as freelance sustainable software developers.
We were all united in our purpose, creating sustainable software for purpose-driven organisations. We’d each been lucky enough to work with amazing organisations including community groups, innovative start ups, and even the United Nations! We all wanted to do more, and help more people.
Thus Sprout* was born! We decided to combine all of our knowledge of sustainable web design into one solution. We want Sprout* to push the boundaries of good practice in the web, and bring Sustainable Web Design to the mainstream!

Questions for a better web
What is the carbon footprint of the web?
The internet currently produces approximately 3.7% of global carbon emissions. That's more than the entire airline industry! Our digital world does not exist in a vacuum, the data centres and transmission networks which make up the web, and even our own devices, all consume electricity and in turn produce carbon emissions. Each year web energy consumption is increasing by a shocking 20%. Here at Sprout* we're optimistic that together we can turn the tide and create a more sustainable web.
How can I check the CO2 emissions of my current website?
A number of great tools exist to measure the CO2 emissions of your website. We recommend websitecarbon.com and ecograder.com. According to Website Carbon, the average web page produces approximately 0.85 grams CO2 equivalent per pageview. For a website with 10,000 monthly page views, that's 102kg CO2e per year. How does your website stack up?
How do you reduce the CO2 emissions of a website?
The most important thing you can do to reduce the CO2 produced by your website is to reduce it's size. Only include valuable content and try to avoid huge images, videos and unnessary content. The website code should be optimised to keep the site as small as possible. Furthermore, it's best to host the website with a green hosting provider that runs on 100% renewable energy. Our Sprout* Site templates have been optimised to be as small as possible and consume as little energy as possible, and are hosted on 100% renewable energy. That's how Sprout* Sites emit 99% less CO2 than the average site.
