Projects you’ll support when you Fly Carbon Neutral
Fighting fire with fire
Northern Australia is prone to extreme and dangerous wildfires. Every year Indigenous rangers use traditional fire management practices to conduct early season dry burns, preventing larger uncontrolled wildfires. Our investment in these projects help to not only significantly reduce emissions but supports Indigenous economic development through our commitment in our Reconciliation Action Plan.

Energy-efficient cooking stoves
Increasing energy needs in developing countries are contributing to deforestation, reducing a forest's ability to absorb carbon from the atmosphere. Our investment funds the distribution of energy-efficient cook stoves to farming families in rural Ethiopia that currently use open fires to cook. The cook stoves reduce air pollution, emit less black soot and methane, and reduce deforestation.

Rainforest conservation
Large hectares of tropical rainforest in Papua New Guinea is under threat of deforestation and degradation. Our investment in this project helps to protect rainforest that would otherwise be cleared - securing vital wildlife habitat, supporting local communities, and preventing the release of millions of tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions each year.
