The coffee industry is not sustainable. Current coffee prices don't provide a living income to most of the world’s farmers, causing instability and enduring poverty. The coffee industry creates significant carbon emissions, disproportionately affecting farmers through climate change. We can meaningfully reduce the climate impact of the coffee industry by advocating for the widespread adoption of electric and distributed roasting to reduce our carbon footprint. We can support long term economic health for farmers by paying coffee farmers equitable prices and investing in farm communities where we source coffee.
Today we’re operating off hundreds of millions of years of accumulated plant- and animal-based carbon. On our current path, we will fully exhaust this stored energy in only a few generations and, in the process, carbonize our atmosphere to such a degree that life as we know it will not be possible. If the planet is to continue to sustain life and enchant future generations, we have to change. Rivian has signed the Climate Pledge to reach a net-zero carbon emissions goal by 2040 — 10 years ahead of the Paris Agreement. Our battery packs are designed to be easily removed from our vehicles and either recycled or used in “second life” applications such as stationary storage. The interiors of our vehicles are made from 100% animal-free materials with mid-life repairability and end-of-life recyclability planned into the design. Dunnage containers at our plant are reusable and made from plastics harvested from the ocean. We build the world's first electric adventure vehicle.

Newlight was founded in 2003 with a question: why can't we use greenhouse gas emissions as a resource to make materials? After 10 years of research and development, Newlight has developed a carbon capture technology that pulls carbon out of greenhouse gas and uses that carbon to produce a bioplastic material called AirCarbon™: a naturally-occurring material that can match the performance of oil-based plastics and out-compete on price.
The accelerated weathering of olivine is the only method we are aware of to remove CO2 from the atmosphere that is viable with today’s technology, can be done at a reasonable price, and that is scalable to the gigaton level. Our plan is to put this process into action to demonstrate to the world that carbon removal is possible and that it is well past the time we start.
