BrewDog Goes Carbon Negative With Major Investment Plan

Scottish craft brewer BrewDog is going ‘carbon negative’, with the announcement of a series of investments aimed at fighting climate change and boosting sustainability.

The business has purchased 2,050 acres of land in the Scottish Highlands, north of Loch Lomond, onto which it plans to plant one million trees over the next few years – part of a £30 million action plan incorporating a range of green investments.

The brewer also plans to create a sustainable campsite on the land, that will host sustainability retreats and workshops for the general public.

The brewer aims to remove twice as much carbon from the air than it emits every year, and will also be working on a number of carbon offsetting projects, alongside scientific advisor Professor Mike Berners-Lee and his team at Small World Consulting.
