Accurx, a trailblazer in health technology, is deeply committed to environmental sustainability, guided by its detailed Net Zero pathway. The company has partnered with Furthr as part of its ongoing efforts to better understand and manage its emissions. As detailed in its 2024 Emissions Report and Carbon Reduction Plan (attached below), Accurx is currently on track to meet its reduction targets across all scopes.

In parallel to emissions reductions, Accurx is already offsetting its entire footprint with high-quality carbon offsets. Additionally, the company encourages its team to become more aware of their personal environmental impacts - whether they're at work, at home, or spending time with friends and family. This initiative is part of a broader strategy to foster a culture of sustainability throughout the organization, making a positive impact on the community and the planet.

The Problem

In Scotland, large areas that were once covered in trees have been replaced by other ecosystems, like heathlands, often resulting in less carbon sequestration, and lower biodiversity. Now, ancient woodlands - those that have existed since at least AD 1600 and have developed irreplaceable, complex ecosystems - cover only 1% of the country. Native woodlands are not doing much better, covering just 4%.

The Solution

The project will increase carbon capture and biodiversity near Loch Ness and Loch Mhor, through the creation of 63 hectares of new native woodland. The woodland will serve as an expansion of nearby ancient native woodlands. Since herbivores like deer, with no natural predators left, can harm forest ecosystems and prevent natural forest regeneration, both the new trees and the existing forest will be fenced.

The Problem

Home emissions, primarily coming from heating and electricity use, account for almost a quarter of the UK’s total carbon emissions. The government’s advisory body has stated that the UK will not meet its emissions targets “without near complete decarbonisation of the housing stock”, but inefficiencies in older houses represent a significant barrier.

The Solution

The project addresses climate change and fuel poverty by funding the affordable retrofitting of UK housing stock. This includes: - Adding insulation to homes to prevent heat loss. - Improving the efficiency of, or replacing, central heating components. To ensure additionality, the project targets social housing and households which could not afford retrofit investments. The monitoring period is set to 7 years, to ensure that the credits account for possible changes in government budgeting.

The Problem

The Gruinard Estate site is predominantly degraded as a result of natural means, such as climate, altitude, slope and the herbivore impact. Healthy peatlands act as carbon sinks, but when they become degraded, they release stored carbon, increase flood risks, and lose biodiversity.

The Solution

The objective of the project is to return 175.36 hectares of degraded blanket bog to a near natural state which will more effectively hold water, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, store carbon, and restore the biodiversity of the area. This will be achieved by reshaping eroded peat formations to prevent further damage, increasing the amount of water retained in the peat, keeping it wet and preventing carbon release, and using natural peat barriers to slow water runoff and restore bog conditions.

The Problem

In Uganda, wood use, agriculture and increasing population have been key factors in deforestation. The International Small Group and Tree Planting Program (TIST) empowers Small Groups of subsistence farmers in India, Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda to combat the devastating effects of deforestation, poverty and drought.

The Solution

The TIST program is a completely voluntary scheme for small landowners. Currently, there are 22 580 TIST participants in total from across 1641 villages in Uganda, which have planted more than 7 million trees. Farmers receive a payment per tree every year, plus a 70% revenue share from the sale of the carbon credits these trees produce, as a direct cash payment. Furthermore, each planted tree creates an additional value of $8 for the farmers. This includes fruits, nuts, fodder, traditional medicines, sustainable wood products and firewood (from dead trees and thinnings).

The Problem

Over 60% of Europe’s forests are at risk of the effects of climate change and especially monoculture forests, which face increased repercussions from storms, droughts and pests. In Germany alone, there are more than 3 million hectares of monocultures that need to be turned into biodiverse mixed forests to increase their climate resilience and increase biodiversity and carbon capture.

The Solution

With the Lake Kessel climate protection project, Pina Earth is converting 93 hectares of pine monoculture forest in Brandenburg into a near-natural, biodiverse mixed forest over 30 years. The introduction of new species, the promotion of natural rejuvenation and the adapted game management make the forest more resistant to the consequences of climate change such as storms, drought and beetle infestation.

The Problem

Over 21 million people in Uganda are without access to clean water. Communities often rely on unsafe wells, lakes and other open water sources that are highly susceptible to contamination. Community groups own many existing boreholes across Uganda that have fallen into disrepair because maintenance programmes have been poorly managed or have proven too expensive.

The Solution

The Lango Safe Water project aims to resolve this issue by restoring existing boreholes and providing training for their continued maintenance. In addition to improved access to clean water, this will serve to reduce the emissions associated with boiling water to sanitise it. The initiative also addresses gender inequality and has become the first ever Gold Standard Gender Responsive certification project.

The Problem

In Pakistan, 34% of mangrove forests were lost between 1990 and 2010, leading to floods, land erosion, and significantly lower sequestration of atmospheric carbon. Mangroves wetland serve as a carbon sink, stabilize coastal regions, and have a wealth of biodiversity, including large numbers of migratory shorebirds. They are also home to thousands of people who rely on the trading of shellfish and crab for their living.

The Solution

This 60-years project is implemented over an area of 350,000 ha. It will deliver GHG removals through afforestation, reforestation and revegetation of 226,000 ha of degraded tidal wetlands.

The Problem

Sawmill operations, like the one in the Republic of Congo, often produce significant biomass waste. Traditionally, this waste is burned or discarded, leading to increased CO2 emissions and contributing to environmental pollution and climate change.

The Solution

The innovative use of biochar, a new carbon removal solution, addresses this issue. Biomass waste is transformed into biochar, a stable carbon form stored in soil, significantly reducing CO2 emissions. This method not only manages waste sustainably but also contributes to environmental conservation and supports local communities through employment and essential services​.
