Northzone's climate compensation

At Northzone we believe that our role and responsibility in the climate challenge goes far beyond "neutrality". We always look for disruptors truly changing how things are done and we should do so also when we compensate for our own carbon emissions.

maximizing long-term co2 removal

We have chosen to apply an internal carbon fee (100USD/tonne for Scope 1 & 2, 10 USD/tonne for Scope 3) and annually support the Milkywire Climate transformation fund with this donation. We do so because we believe that our carbon compensation should be linked to creating maximum climate impact. Further, we believe that collaboration and innovation are key to solving the climate crisis. This setting allows us to support and track the results of catalytic research in new reduction and removal techniques and to engage in collaboration across the tech & impact ecosystems.

Climate Transformation Fund

Milkywire's Climate Transformation Fund, established in 2021, focuses on innovative projects that accelerate global net-zero goals. Our mission is to achieve maximum long-term CO₂ reduction or removal per dollar spent. We're committed to supporting new technical solutions, influencing climate policy for greater ambition, and scaling up nature-based climate projects. With 30 projects already backed and 15+ partners on board, we're paving the way for a more sustainable future.
