Shopify Sustainability Fund
Table of Contents
Shopify’s approach to sustainability starts with its carbon offset fund. This fund invests in projects with a negative carbon footprint, i.e. these projects capture more CO₂ than they emit. Through this fund, Shopify supports innovative initiatives that not only reduce emissions, but actively contribute to carbon sequestration.
Commitment to carbon sequestration
To solve the climate crisis, Shopify is investing in carbon sequestration technologies. Direct carbon dioxide capture, for example, involves extracting CO₂ from the atmosphere and storing it securely and permanently. This process, which is similar to treatment plants, is crucial for reducing the levels of CO₂ present in the air.
