We expect to move away from natural gas for heat when our lease ends, either by seeking a new space with renewable energy or working with our landlord to electrify our current space. For scope 2, we purchase RECS through a community electricity plan and will continue to do so. For Scope 3, we continue to work with our closest supply partners to encourage them to move to green electricity. We are also working on ways to reduce our footprint from shipping.
