Push to become greener

[TheV1ll4n]

Can Monzo look at offsetting carbon emissions or even producing minus emissions?

• Plant trees?
• Ideas for green initiatives?
• Deals/affiliation with environmentally friendly organisations and traders?
• Support for independent traders and locally sourced produce? Suggest ideas about this.

This is been partly discussed here:

Pay for carbon neutrality - Monzo Green account

Idea for Monzo plus - could we have a “Monzo Green” add-on that we can have for the account? Id be happy to pay to offset the carbon generated by my having a Monzo account / e.g. carbon generated from product development, support, hosting etc Jumping off this idea - Carbon Offsetting in Monzo

I think this may be something for the future, but not a focus for the next year or two, Monzo needs to be profitable first, then can look at things like this.

That said, I’m sure they could look to do little steps towards this, and if they were really all about being ‘greener’ then they’d make it a higher priority, but they’ve never said they are focussed on things like this so who knows.
