2zero – Towards zero emissions!
Our vision is to help shape a sustainable and long-term transformation – in private, social, and professional contexts – so that together we can learn to live a climate-neutral lifestyle and protect our planet.
Once upon a time...
... Emil and Moritz began working on a CO₂ calculator with their software agency twigbit. Shortly thereafter, twigbit became part of the Less is more consortium and met the founders of the sustainability start-up worldwatchers, beginning the development of a mobile app to reduce personal CO₂ footprints. This was the starting point for the apps Klimakompass&Klimo and the accompanying initiative Klimathon, with the goal of supporting municipalities and companies in sustainable transformation. At the turn of the year 2021/2022, the projects were then handed over to the twigbit team to lead — that was the birth of 2zero!
Acceleration of the Transformation
With our growing momentum and the increasing number of users in our app, we are driving our growth and expanding our impact.
Reduce > Offset
With our solutions, we aim to promote a sustainable shift in values. We follow a positive and motivating approach to make this transformation possible.
Shared Responsibilty
We believe in reducing rather than offsetting CO₂ emissions. We believe in the necessity of a responsible mindset to achieve our sustainability goals.
Inspiring People
We encourage people to commit to sustainability, spread positivity, and thereby create an empathetic community for inspiration and learning.
Fostering a Mindset
We're all in the same boat, which is why we rely on a shared mindset, trust, and respect. With this, we aim for transparent and collaborative interaction.
Sparking Curiosity
Through our playful challenges and content, we enable change and transformation while sparking curiosity for creative, cooperative, innovative, and impactful solutions.
2zero – 1 Team
We are the creators behind 2zero.
As a team, we are strong together for sustainable change!
As a software engineer and co-founder, I make sure all systems run smoothly. I'm happy that, as a programmer, I can focus on sustainability.
I'm the CPO and co-founder at 2zero, always focused at my desk in the 2zero office with my big headphones on—just like my colleagues have so nicely observed!
I'm a software developer and also responsible for ice cream and sweets. By the afternoon, I usually have something to snack on in the office—which I then share with everyone!
Alongside Moritz and Emil, I am a co-founder of 2zero. I'm responsible for driving our growth as an organization and setting our strategic direction—and also: keeping everyone's spirits high!
My main role is initiating and coordinating our various sustainability initiatives. In the office, they "love" me for my long phone calls and the many kilometers I walk around our desks.
As a designer, I create concepts and drafts for our products such as the website, app, marketing materials, and pitches. In the team, they jokingly call me the “Figma god”!
As a software bug exterminator, I hunt down pesky bugs like it’s my job—because it is. The irony? I’m probably the one who created half of them in the first place, but hey, at least I’m consistent!
I’m responsible for making sure exciting content is available daily in the 2zero app. Creative ideas and an eye for detail are part of my routine—along with the occasional joke!
Every day I balance between enough downtime on my sofa and being there for the team with my good vibes—a job I sometimes even get envied for!
We’re looking for you!
We're continuing to grow and need dedicated support. Take a look and see if something’s right for you!
Our Strategic and Scientific Support
As a young team, we are always looking for external support. From the very beginning, we have been working with mentors, scientific partners, and networks.
