The impact of fossil-fuel-powered energy to the environment is no news to any of us. In 2018, fossil fuel-powered energy was among the biggest factors causing global warming. In 2018, the energy industry created around 28.0% of the total greenhouse gas emissions, not to mention the C02 emissions caused by transportation. (Eurostat 2018) Luckily the numbers are decreasing, but not fast enough. The energy transition needs to be accelerated together, but not only the carbon emission issue needs addressing. Biodiversity as a whole needs to be protected to ensure the protection of our delicate ecosystems from further collapsing. We at Crowd For Impact believe that supporting innovation is the key to saving the planet and we encourage companies to take part in the process of supporting entrepreneurs who are solving the world's major environmental challenges. Together, companies can help impact enterprises to scale and release the innovations out there that our planet needs to survive. This process can be accelerated with the help of significant game-changing players such as Neste. 🌎🌎 We propose that you take action by supporting these innovation-related solutions. This would accelerate the change we need to save the planet from this ecological catastrophe. @2DegreesC is a research-based nonprofit organization addressing global warming with climate data, and we believe there is strength in numbers. Educated decisions can only be made with accurate data. Consider also supporting the SDG Life Below Water for healthier marine ecosystems with @RiverRecycle, a social enterprise collecting plastic waste and enabling local livelihoods through circularity. Marine life protection is vital for C02 capture! What do you think - can we save the planet together by accelerating innovation growth?

What do we mean when we refer to impact enterprises on Crowd For Impact? When we refer to impact startups or impact enterprises, this is what we mean. An impact enterprise is a project, startup or an artist whose main goal is to create a positive impact by solving global environmental or societal problems. The main focus of an impact enterprise is driving positive change through innovation while still aiming to have a profitable business. In many cases part of the profit is given to charity. The business model of an impact startup is based on improving, solving or fixing an environmental or societal issue. These impact enterprises work on, for example, reducing plastic waste, protecting biodiversity, helping families in need, fighting climate change and so on. If you want to find a new way to address environmental threats, find impact enterprises solving inequalities, plastic waste or loss of biodiversity on Crowd For Impact and help them create the change that the world needs. You can support them by purchasing a service or a product, either as an individual or as a company. Soon we will publish an employer rewarding and sustainability tool, which enables companies to track their impact when purchasing from these impact creators. www.crowdforimpact.com

As a dedicated climate advocate, I am passionate about connecting people with our natural environment, and I believe my personal mission aligns well with Crowd For Impact, in an effort to build resilient societies and adaptation in regard to climate change, the effects of which I have personally experienced in the form of major hurricanes and seen the devastating effects of sea level rise, and coral bleaching around the world. As the Executive Director of 2°C, I have met many times with Crowd For Impact to develop a crowdfund strategy that will allow us to generate the needed income to distribute climate sensors to crowdsource data to help scientists fill in the data gaps that exist. Crowd For Impact shares our desire to improve our combined futures through ensuring a healthy climate. I appreciate their efforts and support their vision.

Climate action is needed more urgently than ever. 2°C is doing valuable work to fight climate change with a research based solution, by collecting the much needed climate data. They deserve all the climate love they can get! We can all contribute to the fight against climate change by helping with climate data collection, especially from the most remote areas. The more accurate data is gathered, the more this allows scientists, land managers and companies to make more effective and educated decisions for research, nature conservation and sustainability. Whether you hike, run, skateboard or cycle in your close by park or in the forest, you can help by wearing a climate sensor and participate in fighting climate change.

It not easy to find ways to prevent loss of biodiversity, but there are impact startups, creative mind with solutions how to solve it. @Blokgarden (Finland) is an impact startup protecting our fragile ecosystems and biodiversity locally by providing people and companies an easy way to have their own gardens in the cities. With their Urban Oasis Project they are seeking to develop their wonderful gardening concept while doing something good for the environment. Taking more tangible actions in sustainability does not have to be hard and we know you're up for it! It can be as simple as purchasing their urban gardening boxes and placing them to your office rooftop. Perhaps pair it with another impact creator, such as the @HumblebeeHousingProject? We strongly believe that the environmental issues are solved through impact startup cooperation. Are you ready to accept the challenge? This is where to take the action: https://crowdforimpact.com/project-details/innercity-oasis-project-4190acb6

NY Governor Hochul Rejects Applications for Danskammer and Astoria Fracked Gas Plants. Today, Governor Hochul and her Department of Environmental Conservation denied permits for both the Astoria NRG and Danskammer fracked gas plants, citing their inconsistency with New York’s landmark climate law, the Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act. In response, Food & Water Watch Northeast Region Director Alex Beauchamp issued the following statement: “Governor Hochul’s decision strikes a critical blow to the fossil fuel industry, providing a huge victory for New York’s climate movement. She is showing the nation what real climate leadership looks like. The next step is for Governor Hochul to commit to halting all fossil fuel infrastructure, including the North Brooklyn pipeline and the Gowanus power plant.” Source: https://www.foodandwaterwatch.org/2021/10/27/ny-governor-hochul-rejects-applications-for-danskammer-and-astoria-fracked-gas-plants/

Crowd For Impact platform incentivises companies to take real action through value driven purchases from social enterprises, and by offering your company a powerful sustainability tool in return. Book a demo to learn how we can help your company reach your sustainability goals and combine that with value driven choices.

We believe in the power of cooperation. This cooperation must happen between individuals, companies and impact innovators. Joining forces not only makes all of us stronger, but directs the growth and consumption habits of people to more sustainable ways. You can lead the way. It is no longer an option to say "We don't have the resources to change." You don't need to find all innovations within your company. Reach your company sustainability goals through startup cooperation - purchase from an impact entrepreneur and fund their entrepreneurial journey. In return, you'll receive sustainably produced goods and services, and you can track the impact that your contributions are creating. Our process benefits both you and the impact creators. That's why we're here. Join us at www.crowdforimpact.com and sign up to our Early Adopters Waitilist. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mtbbHwpg8X0
