Sustainability Score – What it means and how to improve

We encourage low‑impact, high‑transparency creative work. This guide explains how your sustainability score is calculated and practical steps to raise it.

What affects the score?

Deliverables: Digital‑only outputs score higher than print/merch/packaging.
Territory & distribution: Worldwide distribution lowers the score vs local/UK/EU.
Blockchain footprint: Lower‑emission chains (Polygon, L2s) score higher than mainnet usage.
Timeline: Extreme rush timelines reduce sustainability due to inefficient production.

Improve your score (Artists & Buyers)

Prefer digital deliverables where possible; if printing, use eco‑certified materials.
Use localised production to minimise global shipping.
Choose low‑emission chains for on‑chain records (e.g., Polygon).
Allow reasonable timelines to avoid rush production.

Factors that lower your score

Worldwide distribution without local production hubs.
Print/merch heavy outputs without sustainability options.
Using high‑emission chains for routine records.
Unrealistic deadlines leading to wasteful rush work.

Quick wins

Switch to digital‑only when appropriate.
Set UK/EU territories when suitable instead of worldwide.
Pick L2s for blockchain traceability.
Extend timelines by 1–2 weeks for complex projects.
