Borealis is pleased to be featured in the Financial Post this morning, on page 3.

 

We appreciate Aldyen’s comments about displacing food production and the forward crediting necessary for afforestation projects. However, none of the land we work with is used to produce food for people. We only work with hay land – of which there is a local surplus – and rough pasture.

 

Without question, new forests are an important part of the fight against climate change. The forward crediting of carbon is an issue which has kept afforestation projects out of the regulated carbon markets and is a persistent question in the voluntary markets, where we work.

 

Borealis is developing an innovative offsetting product that will address the forward crediting issue while continuing to create healthy forest ecosystems that absorb carbon and permanently store it. We’ll be rolling it out to the market in the next month and we look forward to keeping you posted!

 

Borealis is pleased to announce that we will be offsetting the carbon emissions of Juno Award Nominees Mr. Something Something's summer touring across Canada.

 

Toronto Life magazine says "“…the band’s eco-conscious attitude, clever lyrics and danceable rhythms all add up to a show that shouldn’t be missed.”

 

Catch Mr. Something Something on one of their summer dates here.

 

Borealis is proud to advertise in Corporate Knights magazine's 50 Best Corporate Citizens issue. The magazine will be included in subscription copies of the Globe & Mail on Monday, June 30 in eastern Canada and July 7 in western Canada. It's also available in newsstands across the country.

 

Borealis is pleased to recognise all of the Canadian firms who understand that good practice is good business, and have made social and environmental responsibility part of the way they think and work. Special congratulations to IBM Canada, this year's Best Corporate Citizen.

 

If you miss the magazine, you can still have a look at our ad.

 

"In its sixth year of publishing, Corporate Knights is Canada’s foremost magazine for responsible business. While pure traditional business magazines like Forbes focus in on the financial elements of companies and activist magazines like Adbusters treat companies as guilty targets

to attack, Corporate Knights is laser-focused on how companies impact people and the planet. Our editorial content supports the corporate

quest to attain reputable standards of social and environmental responsibility." - from Corporate Knights
