Our sustainability pledge
It’s believed that, worldwide, at least 80,000 acres of forests are destroyed every day*. The removal of trees without sufficient reforestation has contributed to higher levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, worsening levels of air pollution, and devastating damage to habitats and biodiversity.
At Bowmore Asset Management, we are dedicated to seeking out and supporting ways to reduce our carbon footprint and preserve our planet’s ecosystem.
Our pledge to you: For each new client choosing to invest sustainably with us, we have committed via Ecologi.com to plant two trees in the UK.
Our pledge to our employees: We will finance the planting of 5 trees per employee per month via Ecologi.com
