Avery & Brown to support Carbon Kapture and sponsor innovative hackathon event

A match made in seaweed heaven...

We are delighted to be doing some work with Carbon Kapture, whose mission is "to help rebalance nature and remove CO₂ from our oceans and atmosphere to reduce damage to our environment and ecosystems".

We will be supporting Carbon Kapture with the creation of an event plan for their 'Kelp-us-save-the-planet-a-thon', which is a hackathon-style event taking place on Monday 28th July 2021. We are also delighted to be an official event sponsor.

Since we are on a mission to becoming a regenerative business, we honestly can't think of many businesses we are better suited to partner up with, as Carbon Kapture's objective is to regenerate our oceans and fight climate change. Right up our street!

Kelp, a type of seaweed that can grow up to two feet per day (yes, you read that correctly!) can be a great ally in our fight against climate change. It is highly efficient at removing CO₂ from our ocean, which is one of the world's biggest carbon sinks, absorbing up to 25% of carbon emissions.

Kelp can also play a huge part in restoring our fish stocks. As it draws in carbon, it both oxygenates and reduces the acidity of the water creating a healthier marine ecosystem. In short, kelp is an ideal ecological carbon capture solution.

Learn more about Carbon Kapture on their website here, and stay tuned to our social media channels for more details about the hackathon on 5th July!

By Russ Avery • 16 Oct, 2023

London, UK (17 October 2023) Three UK Certified B Corporations have launched a new campaign celebrating 'Better Business Pioneers' – individuals in the workplace driving positive change in the face of inaction from world leaders. The campaign, which launches on Monday 23 October 2023, comes in response to the lack of progress on pressing global issues like climate change, biodiversity loss and social inequality. By spotlighting those already driving change, the campaign aims to counter climate doom, inspire more conscious actions, and showcase how we all have the power to shape a better future. The campaign is a collaboration between Avery & Brown, a sustainable brand, marketing and creative agency, The Better Business Network, an inclusive network for purpose-driven business owners and leaders, and OPEN Media, an out-of-home media owner, operating a portfolio of screens across the entire UK.
