Climate Positive

Hobson Leavy are proudly climate positive certified with Ekos. Through investing in certified carbon credits from Ekos’ Kern Creek Conservation Forest Project, we have measured and offset 120% of our carbon footprint. Nestled between Nelson Lakes and the West Coast, this project grows and protects over 130 ha of mixed forest, with the goal for the forest to be native, and a biodiverse haven. Having become climate positive, we have gone beyond neutrality meaning we are having regenerative impact on our planet.

 

Hobson Leavy is committed to keeping our emissions low and actively seeking ways to reduce these further, and whenever possible. View our Ekos Climate Positive certification here and our Emissions Summary here
