💪 Our Carbon Emissions Land Tax campaign is backed by a diverse range of over 50 community groups, trade unions, churches, charities, and businesses representing over a million people in Scotland. Oxfam Scotland is just one of those many backers: “Oxfam Scotland strongly supports efforts to rethink who and what we tax as a vital means of financing faster climate action and to incentivise emissions reduction from the biggest and richest polluters, while protecting the worst off from footing the bill for the transition to a low carbon future.” 🌿 👉 Help us secure a Carbon Emissions Land Tax that soaks up carbon, boosts biodiversity, and strengthens rural communities.

While some of the companies that donated prohibit #politicaldonations, Woodside Energy told us at FS Sustainability that its #Voice donation was political. Investors expect ASX-listed companies to watch their #corporatedonations more closely, as the donor list of the #2023Voice referendum uncovers a thin line between #political versus #philanthropic activities.

“Don’t wait for all the answers before starting. We don’t have time 🌍 💦” - this is one of if not THE most critical attitudes that we all need to celebrate within sustainability and climate action. (Natalie Campbell MBE obviously this also made me think of you!) I totally understand how overwhelming the sheer volume of reporting and regulatory standards for companies is (not to mention the complicated administration of such) and how that has a significant impact on the speed of delivering solutions. These standards are vital to the developing discourse, but I doff my cap to any company that takes the gutsy decision to press ahead knowing they might not get everything right. Doing it regardless. Believing that action doesn’t have to wait, that we can all generate considerable impacts and outcomes if we just make that decision: to act now, and in collaboration. As a financial institution that finds itself within an inch of counting half the entire UK population as its customers, Lloyds Banking Group is in an incredibly unique position to have an almost unfathomably positive impact on the future direction of climate action. Which is why I was genuinely astounded at last year’s launch of their Climate & Nature 2030 goals - this is literally the game-changing, spearheading attitude we need the private sector to take…but I honestly hadn’t expected a major bank to make such a bold move to commit to water neutrality within these goals. Absolute kudos to the hundreds upon hundreds of staff I know are working day-in day-out to push the group’s sustainability agenda into new territory, and to no doubt inspire similar bold action being taken within the wider financial services industry. Loved the flexing between the granular and the grand during our discussion Mike Stitt and Jack 💙💚
Attended a really insightful event hosted by Thames21 to hear about the incredible work the charity are doing to clean up the Thames and deliver social water projects. Really inspiring listening to the volunteers talk about the work they do and the positive impact it has on cleaning our rivers and waterways, improving biodiversity and creating spaces that bring communities together. At Lloyds Banking Group we have pledged to become water neutral by 2030. How do we get to the neautrality bit? Once we have exhausted our own water efficiency across our properties. We are learning everything we can about what water offset might mean and how we can help other organisations do the same, whilst positively impacting the communities we serve. Set the ambition, then ask the questions. Don’t wait for all the answers before stating. We don’t have time 🌍 💦 Emma Johnson Emma Paterson Jack Condon Simon Beckwith Gillian Brown Cheryl Jones Sarah Morrison Daniel Coakley Joanne Beecroft

Water is life. I was filling a water bottle at the airport yesterday. Then it struck me that, what we take for granted, like filling a water bottle for free, is what people in some other parts of the world have to fight for. I am so very proud of Rubicon Carbon's philanthropic partnership with Water.org to amplify the social impact of our everyday work. Together we will make a difference. #watercrisis #climatechange
Carbon credits, like those in our Rubicon Carbon Tonne portfolios, drive decarbonization to safeguard our planet. At Rubicon Carbon, we love carbon credits that go above and beyond to deliver additional social impact, like access to safe water and sanitation. Water is life. We are proud to announce our first nonprofit partner, Water.org. Now, every purchase of Rubicon Carbon Tonnes with eligible projects will help give at least 100 people access to clean water or sanitation via a donation to Water.org. Contact us to learn more about how your decarbonization journey can also help end the water crisis.
