The Human Superpower project is inline with VMware commitment to sustainable development, including social responsibility, diversity and inclusion at the workplace and positive environmental impact. The project has long-term goals.

-The company is providing electric cars and bikes, which could be used on a carpooling principle. Our long-term plans are to increase the number of the vehicles and to continue being sustainable with care to the environment. -A monthly challenge with prizes which aims to present alternative ways to travel within the city that are least harmful to the environment. We encourage our employees to walk, run, bike instead of using their cars every time they can and track their efforts on a weekly basis. -Educational presentations on recycling and decreasing the single-used item consumption. We invited recycling companies to share more information about the process. -Launching several cleaning initiatives in order to collect garbage from the shores of dam Iskar, park Vartopo in Sofia and Rhodope mountain. -Planting trees like part of the Gorata.bg initiative. -Taking part in the �Caps for Future’ initiative.

From the official launch of the carpooling system till now we have avoided 20,72 metric tones CO2. Our initiative Human Superpower to encourage our employees to walk, run, bike instead of taking the car has resulted in 3641km traveled by bike or by foot, and 379 avoided single-used plastic items.
