Pachama and Shopify: Brazilian Carbon Credit Collaboration

The Águas da Mata Atlântica project also seeks to establish a crucial wildlife corridor, facilitating the free movement of native animal species between two remaining forest patches.

This initiative not only contributes to carbon sequestration but also promotes biodiversity conservation and ecosystem restoration.

Shopify’s investment in this project aligns with its broader sustainability goals and demonstrates its commitment to supporting high-quality nature-based solutions that address climate change and environmental degradation.

Shopify’s partnership with Pachama follows the lead of Latin American e-commerce giant Mercado Libre, which previously invested in the same project through its Regenera America program.

This collaborative approach highlights the growing recognition of the importance of reforestation and carbon removal initiatives among leading companies.

Stacy Kauk, Shopify’s Head of Sustainability, expressed confidence in Pachama’s project quality, stating, “We hope that by participating as a buyer, we’ll help kickstart a new generation of reforestation projects.” This sentiment echoes Shopify’s commitment to driving positive change and supporting innovative climate solutions.
