While scrolling through Facebook this morning, I saw a post that Alex Honnold (climber extraordinaire) had posted about a company that he found interesting.
The company (or in it's own words, social enterprise) is called Mossy-Earth (https://mossy.earth/), and, in their own words, this is what they do:
I found this interesting - climate change is a topic that has been more and more discussed recently, and this company attempts to do something about that (to my knowledge) hasn't been done before. We ask people to recycle, carpool, consume less meat, but never have we asked people to donate money in this way. Which is interesting, given that we do this in other non-profit sectors - we don't always ask people to change their lifestyles, we ask people to donate money so that those who are well versed in those subjects can help bring about change that will make it easier to change whatever it is that non-profit is trying to change.
This is definitely something I'll be looking at the next time I take a flight (https://mossy.earth/collections/carbon-offsetting/products/offset-your-flights), and I wish them great success!

Mossy Earth is a social enterprise whose main aim is, by planting trees, to deliver real environmental change and make a positive impact on the state of the planet's wildernesses and forests.We plant trees on two fronts. Carbon Offsetting to fight climate change and Rewilding to enrich ecologically and socio economically impoverished areas to create wildernesses that flourish and job opportunities for rural communities.
