Making fine wine more sustainable
The science is clear. The world has a carbon problem. There is a growing layer of greenhouse gases in our atmosphere that traps heat and changes the earth’s climate. As a result, humans have already warmed the planet by 1° centigrade.
As we approach a point-of-no-return, the European Parliament predicts shipping emissions could grow by 50 to 250 percent by 2050. Without significant changes, billions of people will be more vulnerable to unprecedented heat, flooding, and environmental degradation. Simply put: we must act now.
Improve our business practices and protect the environment. These changes are more important than ever as the wine industry continues to grow. Even small steps, such as shorter shipping routes, can make a significant impact.
While the world needs to reach net zero, companies that can move faster towards that goal should. That is why Vinovest is taking a proactive approach to minimize carbon emissions. We have built the company on sustainable business practices for effective carbon reduction.
Sustainable isn’t just good for the environment. It’s also good for business. There is research demonstrating that a systematic approach to sustainability can transform the planet and companies’ bottom lines. It’s why we are encouraging other organizations to join us in a push for a carbon-free future.
