DefinitionFinancial climate contributionThe financial climate contribution means that an organisation has calculated the emissions of their company, product, service, or another category, reduced emissions where possible, and funded climate projects to the amount of the calculated emissions.
System BoundariesSources of emissions covered for the financial contributionThrough the operations and activities of a company, carbon emissions are generated. The financial climate contribution for companies includes at minimum direct emissions generated by the company (i.e. heat generation, vehicle fleet, and fugitive gases), emissions from purchased energy like electricity, and also indirect emissions from purchased energy, business travel, and employee commuting. Other emissions that occur outside of the company's direct control, such as those during the extraction and production of raw materials purchased by the company, intermediate products, external logistics, product use, and end-of-life-treatment are not mandatory.

During the manufacturing, processing, and transportation of a product, carbon emissions are generated. These emissions can be directly related to the product, such as through raw materials, packaging, preliminary products, or disposal. They can also be indirectly related, for example, through employees' commuting. Emissions from the use phase are excluded unless the product itself causes carbon emissions, such as a combustion engine or a gas-powered heater.

Company highlights

Since our inception in 2016, Apostle Coffee has been fully committed to minimising our environmental impact. This started with getting our hands dirty by planting a native broadleaf tree for each new member on land surrounding the roastery and has since expanded to include our commitments to compostable, plastic free packaging, ethical and sustainably sourced coffee and working with our suppliers and customers to stimulate positive action on climate change. Our invitation only membership ensures that as we grow our environmental pledges and commitments are safeguarded. We’re building a conscientious coffee community and our members are our driving force. Learn more
As an entirely organic roastery we already work with suppliers who are taking action to minimise the environmental harm associated with industrial scale coffee farming. By supporting cooperatives that champion positive and chemical free farming we are helping solidify this movement, we also select coffees that are Rainforest Alliance and Bird Friendly accredited where possible.

Our entirely compostable product range provides an end of life for our products that avoids long term waste and landfill contributions. We constantly assess our supply chain to make sure our suppliers are as local as possible, working to avoid unnecessary long-distance shipping and the associated emissions.

We deliver our coffee in compostable materials and send everything out via the Royal Mail network. Royal Mail are actively tackling their emissions per delivery and able to provide data that makes them the UKs lowest emitter per delivery.
