Where The Human Beauty Movement, PBC supported independently verified CO2 reductions to mitigate their 2023 business emissions

 

South Dakota

Crow Lake is lowering the carbon intensity of electricity production in one of the US’s top energy consuming states per capita–South Dakota.

Why it’s important: demonstrates a successful and inclusive transition to renewable energy–including local community members and a not-for-profit electric generation and transmission cooperative.

Carbon Standard: Verra UN SDGs: 7, 8, 11, 13

COLORADO

SPLT is an accredited land trust leveraging carbon finance to acquire and preserve shortgrass prairie ecosystems in Colorado.

Why it’s important: avoids land conversion to agriculture / commercial development and provides refuge for native wildlife including the swift fox, ferruginous hawk, burrowing owl, and mountain plover.

Carbon Standard: Climate Action Reserve UN SDGs: 13, 15

COLOMBIA

Escuela de Minas is a run-of-river hydroelectric plant lowering the carbon intensity of increasing electricity production in Marinilla, Colombia.

Why it’s important: avoids the addition of fossil fuel intensive energy production, and increases the share of renewables as energy demand rises due to economic growth in the region.

Carbon Standard: Verra UN SDGs: 4, 7, 8, 13
