Climate change and food waste, two world-shaping challenges that threaten to disrupt the lives of not only those who experience food insecurity, but every single one of us. While millions of people go hungry, the 80+ billion pounds of waste produced by an inefficient food chain rots in landfills, producing methane that disrupts our planet’s delicate ecosystem. At the same time, the most successful businesses in the world across all sectors are looking for ways to neutralize their carbon impact, and are seeking high-integrity carbon offsets with compelling co-benefits. Brightly operates at the intersection of food insecurity and climate change. We work with food rescue organizations to create evergreen funding through the creation of high integrity carbon offset credits, and with corporate buyers seeking to achieve net zero goals while participating in a mission-driven approach.
