Spirit’s Carbon Journey, Part 1

Spirit’s journey to carbon offsets started by looking at our major emissions sources, gathering data from our building management on energy consumption, surveying employees to evaluate commuting emissions, and determining which emissions were most material to our business.

Spirit’s Carbon Journey, Part 2

In Part 2 of Spirit’s carbon journey, we discuss how our company pivoted to offset Spirit’s business-related travel and total commuting emissions. To better align with industry best practices, Spirit adopted the use of Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) to offset our electricity consumption rather than carbon offsets. Finally, in addition to the landfill gas capture credits used to offset 2019 and 2020, Spirit purchased offsets for carbon injected concrete and biochar to address Scope 1 and Scope 3 emissions.
