Carbon-Neutral Podcasts: Podomedy's Green Commitment

Starting February 2025, Podomedy will plant 10 trees via Tree Nation for every new show signed to our network. This isn't just a token gesture—it's a calculated strategy to directly offset our digital carbon generation. Ten trees can counterbalance approximately 100 kg of CO2, equivalent to 78,125 podcast streams.

Why Trees? A Scientifically Backed Solution

Tree planting isn't merely symbolic. The scientific community recognises reforestation as a critical tool in combating climate change. Each tree: 

• Absorbs carbon dioxide

• Supports biodiversity

• Prevents soil erosion

• Supports local economies

A Network Built on Responsibility

Our commitment extends beyond carbon offsetting. We're creating a platform where comedic excellence meets environmental stewardship. Creators joining Podomedy aren't just getting a distribution channel—they're becoming part of a movement that proves entertainment can be both hilarious and conscientious. 

Why Now?

In an era of increasing environmental awareness, digital media platforms are under growing scrutiny for their carbon footprint. Podcasting, a medium celebrated for its accessibility and intimacy, is no exception. At Podomedy, we're pioneering a transformative approach to become a net-zero network that doesn't just talk about sustainability—we're actively implementing it. We believe technology created this challenge, and technology—combined with collective action—can solve it. Podomedy is proving that digital media can be a force for environmental good. 

The Hidden Carbon Cost of Streaming

Most podcast listeners are unaware that their favourite shows contribute to global carbon emissions. Each 30-40 minute podcast episode generates approximately 1.28g of CO2—a seemingly small number that compounds dramatically across millions of daily streams. These emissions stem from the energy consumed by data centers, streaming infrastructure, and the devices we use to listen.
