Business Stream has offset its 2023-24 Scope 1 and Scope 2 carbon emissions through investment in a green gas project in Brazil.
Under its second year of partnership with climate action specialist Ecologi, Business Stream is supporting the Macaúbas Landfill Gas Project in the state of Minas Gerais. The scheme involves installing new active landfill gas extraction, flaring and electricity generation systems to prevent methane gas emissions entering the atmosphere and to enable electricity export to the grid.
In its current monitoring phase, the facility has achieved total emission reductions of 102,580 tCO2e.
Business Stream has committed to continuing to offset its emissions as it works towards its 2030 net zero goal. Last year, it contributed to two Ecologi initiatives: a nature-based project to protect the Mataven Forest in Colombia, and a community-based project to provide over 380,000 cookstoves in Kenya.
