Climate accounting
warfair will strive to create improvements for both the climate, nature and environment, both within ourselves and with the companies we do business with.
warfair therefore strives to climate compensate for our own climate footprint (scope 1 and 2). The largest climate footprint for warfair comes from electricity for electricity and heating. The majority comes from electricity consumption for the company's refrigerated container (5.7 degrees) which is used to cool and store most food. In June 2024, the refrigerated container was replaced with a modern and much more climate-friendly version to reduce electricity consumption in connection with cooling and storage. This has already more than halved emissions from cooling. In addition, there is electricity and heating for storage rooms for other dry goods such as chocolate and olive oil which are stored at 15 degrees and electricity for electricity and heating the packing room/office.
warfair lives in a rental company called Vejgaard, which is heated with geothermal energy, has solar panels (6 kW system) and has purchased green electricity from Naturenenergi, which has now merged with NRGI, throughout the period. Since there are no separate meters for warfair and Vejgaard, the electricity consumption for warfair is calculated based on the difference to the reference period 2019-2020. The climate footprint from the electricity consumed is calculated via Eloverblik provided by Energinet. See calculations and report below.
The climate footprint is offset through a partnership with United Eco Solutions , which provides Gold Standard certified climate credits through tree planting and poverty alleviation in eastern DR Congo. It is in the same area where warfair supports income, work and the conservation of Virunga National Park through the purchase of goods from Virunga Origins . We have pre-ordered climate credits equivalent to 4 tons of CO2.
warfair uses GLS as a package supplier. In 2024, we have switched to primarily shipping with GLS. GLS compensates for the CO2e emissions associated with the delivery.
In 2024, warfair has also switched to tape made from recycled plastic.
The carbon footprint for individual products can, to the extent that the information is available, be found at warfair.world .
