SWNS Media Group is thrilled to partner with Furthr to work towards a sustainable future. Be it in delivering news content on climate change and the environment or taking steps towards Net Zero; we are always working towards enacting positive climate action.
Through this partnership, we will calculate our carbon footprint across the entire business, giving us a clearer picture of the emissions generated by different areas of our operations. This is key in helping us develop a carbon reduction plan for the future. In addition, whilst this is generated, SWNS Media Group will become a climate-positive workforce by the end of 2023 by offsetting our company’s emissions on behalf of our team by planting protected trees and providing our employees with educational insights on sustainability at work and at home.

This has been calculated across 5+ years of experience in tracking the fair wage employment of our planters living local to SWNS's reforestation project sites. Realistically, the true figure here will be slightly more as we are not including the fair wage employment funded as part of SWNS's offsetting solutions.

Through supporting world-leading climate solutions
Reforesting Madagascar
More than 90% of Madagascar's original forest cover has been destroyed due to human activity, displacing entire animal species and significantly reducing water quality. We're helping combat this by planting protected trees each day, and providing paid work for local communities in the process.
Nuetech Solar Water Heating
India is the third-largest emitter of greenhouse gases worldwide after China & the Us, with coal still meeting a whopping 80% of the nation's energy demand. Evopure is tackling this issue at a household level, helping to provide homes & buildings across India with innovative solar cells to heat water directly from the sun.
Community Handpumps
Spread across multiple remote Mozambiquan villages, this innovative project rehabilitates, installs and maintains disused community water pumps to ensure communities have safe water access, as well as building local capacity to ensure that the water points are managed into the future. This creates a true win-win: delivering safe water access for each individual community, whilst also reducing household emissions from purifying water over open fires.
Reforesting Mozambique
Mozambique loses over 1000 football fields' worth of forest every day, with 45% of the population living below the poverty line and relying on biodiversity for survival. We're planting trees across 30+ coastal Mozambiquan mangrove sites, whilst providing fair wage employment for communities local to the projects.
Reforesting Kenya
From the highlands to the coast, Kenya has an incredible diversity of forest types that have long-supported communities and wildlife. However, the management of its biodiversity has been unsustainable, with the nation having lost over half of its forests in recent decades. We're planting trees each month across two distinct region: the Great Rift Valley and the North Coast.
