Thank you to all the FactSetters who participated in our second annual Pledge for the Planet environmental campaign, which celebrates individual actions and big collective impacts. Together we volunteered in 39 events and completed more than 3,300 sustainability challenges, resulting in 11,776 kilograms of carbon dioxide and 1,061 liters of water saved. In the process, we helped to grow the FactSet forest with over 20,000 trees planted with the global reforestation charity One Tree Planted and our local partners around the world.
