S7E4 'Building Digital Products using Eco-Design', with Creek & Pine 🫶
May 14, 2025
Even in 2025, awareness of the carbon footprint of Digital activity seems to remain in its infancy.
As the world slowly wakes up to the reality of the Climate Challenge, many of us in the Digital space find that Sustainability efforts lag behind other sectors.
But with over 250,000 new websites being created every DAY, the carbon impact of our online activity is monumental.
Fortunately, there are trailblazing companies out there, striving to bring eco-design and ethical principles to Digital products. And one of those voices is the team at Creek & Pine - Croatia’s first digital agency that designs and builds low carbon, accessible, beautiful websites based on ethically sourced and used data.
So join James as he sat down with Martina Dodo and Martina Nemcic to discuss:
🇭🇷 Being the first Digital Sustainability Agency in Croatia
👣 The journey to founding Creek & Pine, driven by a motivation to follow Sustainability practises
🛜 What is the true environmental impact of 'The Internet'?
🚅 The importance of Eco-Websites never compromising on speed and performance
🤗 Why kindness is the solution we need
... and much more! ✨
The two Martinas at Creek & Pine are wonderful humans, and we really enjoyed inviting them on the show to hear their story. We hope you enjoy the episode 💚
