Synchronicity Earth’s More than Carbon initiative is designed to provide companies with exciting opportunities to make a positive impact for nature and climate, while also providing benefits for local communities in some of the most nature-rich environments on Earth.

Our More than Carbon initiative

The goal of More than Carbon is to provide a mechanism through which businesses can support the most effective action to protect and restore nature and mitigate the impacts of climate change in some of the world’s most biodiverse – but also most threatened – regions. The initiative places equal emphasis on nature, climate and people, supporting work to protect biodiversity, reduce the impacts of climate change and contribute to human security, health and wellbeing.

Contributing funding to our More than Carbon initiative helps businesses to balance their impact on the natural world, both in terms of their carbon emissions and their impact on nature, thereby contributing towards meeting environmental and social responsibilities.
