Zignago Vetro’s forest is now even bigger. This year, in fact, we have again decided to renew our donation to Treedom: new trees will be added to Zignago Vetro’s forest, ready to take their place all over the world. There are now 6,515 of them. We have done this for the planet, for the communities that will use them as a source of food and to increase their income, but also for ourselves: contributing to building a better future, through gestures that are tangible and significant, is and always will be our priority. We remind you that Zignago Vetro’s forest can be “explored” virtually, using this link: https://lnkd.in/eCwevk4h #ZignagoVetro #glassproduction #glassindustry #innovation #circulareconomy #Treedom

When we emerged from stealth late last year, one of the first partnerships we put in place was with Terraset, a 501c3 nonprofit that pools tax-deductible donations from people, foundations, family offices and donor advised funds to make strategic purchases of high-quality carbon removal - exactly what we are delivering with our direct air capture (DAC) company. Terraset has recently completed its first purchase from Spiritus – and it’s all thanks to the donations of individuals like you. We’ve had friends and newcomers to our company ask how they personally get involved and show their support for removing CO2 from our air. One of the best ways to support our mission is with a tax-deductible donation through Terraset. As an approved supplier, donations sent through Terraset will fund the removal of additional tons of carbon dioxide from the air using energy and cost-efficient methods using Spiritus’ sorbent technology.

In the face of climate change, many of us wonder how we can make a tangible difference. Here’s your chance. Every contribution funds advanced direct air capture technology, turning your support into a cleaner, breathable world. #climatechange #climateaction #makingadifference

We’re thrilled to announce our third year participating in IMPACT TOGETHER: The Colorado River Basin Project! As the ongoing drought continues to affect the primary water sources in the Colorado River Basin area, we’re facing the growing reality that these water supplies are no longer stable and need our help. At Avista, we are committed to increasing water resilience and helping our customers deliver a positive water impact on their sustainability targets. Over the past two years, Kurita, our parent company, donated $40,000 to this initiative. This year, they hope to donate $30,000!

Out today—insights from the Climate and Equity Lab’s Discovery Phase! In partnership with Social Innovation Canada and York University’s Faculty of Environment and Urban Change, the findings of the Lab’s Discovery Phase outline how climate change affects vulnerable and equity-deserving groups in Canadian urban environments. The results of the academic review and in-person workshops conducted in Vancouver, Waterloo Region, and Toronto pinpoint five “levers of change” that can effectively tackle climate change vulnerability.   To accelerate progress, Gore Mutual Foundation has committed $250,000 to award five $50,000 grants to charitable organizations and registered non-profits working together to advance one or more “levers of change” acknowledged in the report.

We're just 4 days away from the Weston-super-Half in aid of Project Seagrass. Many of the population aren't in the know when it comes to seagrass, which is why we are fundraising and sharing important facts along the way, please give, if you can, to our fundraiser for Project Seagrass (link in comments). Seagrasses only occupy 0.1% of the seafloor yet are responsible for 18% of organic carbon buried in the oceans. Seagrass meadows are able to store carbon in their sediment, essentially ‘locking’ away large amounts of carbon and acting as a carbon store. Help protect seagrass meadows by supporting our fundraiser for Project Seagrass. #fundraising #seagrass #projectseagrass #climatechange #climateaction #climatecrisis #justgiving #halfmarathon
