SC Johnson Carbon Sequestration and Offsets
- In April 2004, SC Johnson announced a contribution to Conservation International’s Conservation Carbon Program to help restore up to 45 acres (18 HA) of degraded forests in the Choco-Manabi corridor of Ecuador. This contribution will support the planting of more than 15 native tree species, and as this regenerated forest grows, it will absorb 5,000 tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) over the next 30 years - which will offset the carbon emissions associated with the printing and distribution of the company’s annual Public Report. To learn more about this please visit SC Johnson’s Web site.
SC Johnson, in partnership with the Nature Conservancy, has made a major commitment to help protect the Caatinga, an important bioregion in northeastern Brazil. The project allows for the protection of two sites totaling more than 18,000 acres in the state of Ceara and for the establishment of a local conservation organization to manage the reserves.
