How your website could save the planet, with Teresa Ferreira
Sustainability is on all of our minds right now. Whether it’s arguments about bin collections, fast fashion waste, or what the hell AI is doing to the planet, it’s everywhere. And let’s be honest, sustainability has also become big business. If people care about it in their daily lives, they’re definitely thinking about it when they make decisions about who to buy from and work with.
Which is all well and good if you’re a product-based business with compostable packaging and tree-planting perks, but what if you don’t make anything tangible? How do you show that sustainability matters to you when your business is mostly digital? That’s exactly why I wanted to chat to today’s guest, Teresa Ferreira.
Teresa is a Creative and Brand Consultant and the founder of Farrgood Studio. She helps businesses build timeless brands™ and impactful designs – ones that don’t just look great, but also align with the things you care about. With 16 years of experience across media, health, luxury, and fashion (and a stint as Head of Design at the Financial Times, no less), she blends strategy and creativity in a way that’s seriously impressive. Her studio partners with businesses that are all about positive change, whether through social impact, sustainability, or purpose-led missions—and she’s worked with the likes of Adobe, Somerset House, BBC, and Allbright.
In this episode, we dive into what digital sustainability actually means, how your website might be leaving a bigger carbon footprint than you think, and how small design choices, like your images or hosting, can make a difference. We talk about using your brand and storytelling to carry sustainability through everything you do, not just your marketing blurb.
There’s a load in here that might surprise you, and plenty of ideas you can actually apply – whether you’re deep in the eco-space already, or just starting to think about how your business fits into the bigger picture.
So grab a coffee, get comfy, and listen to Teresa get on her soapbox.
