{% hint style="success" %}
**TL;DR:**\
Lumore reduces its carbon footprint by scaling down servers when not in use, conserving energy and lowering emissions. This energy-efficient approach allows us to provide reliable mental health support while promoting sustainability and a healthier planet.
{% endhint %}

At Lumore, we are committed to minimizing our environmental impact. We understand the importance of sustainability and the role technology plays in shaping the future of our planet. That’s why we’ve designed our system to scale down servers when they’re not in use. When users aren’t interacting with Lumore, our servers automatically reduce their activity, conserving energy and significantly lowering our overall carbon footprint.

This energy-efficient approach helps us do our part in reducing unnecessary emissions while still providing reliable, always-on support for mental health. By optimizing our infrastructure, we aim to create a balance between offering accessible, compassionate assistance and promoting a healthier planet for future generations.

At Lumore, every small step counts—because caring for the environment is as important as caring for mental well-being.
