Sustainable Last Mile Delivery – Restoring Mangroves, Sequestering Carbon

At GO₂ Delivery, we believe that sustainable last mile delivery goes beyond just transforming our fleet. To truly be a Carbon Free Courier, we’re committed to investing in projects that not only offset our CO2 emissions but also amplify positive impacts on the planet. One standout initiative is the Delta Blue Carbon project – the world’s largest blue carbon mangrove restoration effort, located in the Indus Delta, Pakistan.

The Delta Blue Project – Amplifying Impact Through Restoration

Once a thriving ecosystem, the Indus Delta’s mangrove forests were severely degraded due to deforestation for fuel and livestock grazing. This loss damaged biodiversity, reduced carbon storage capacity, and affected the livelihoods of local communities. The Delta Blue Project, a public-private partnership, aims to reverse this damage and amplify environmental benefits.

Since its inception six years ago, Delta Blue has restored 73,000 hectares of mangrove forests, benefiting 43,000 locals and sequestering over 127 million tons of CO2 equivalent (tCO2e). This initiative not only supports global CO2 reduction but also strengthens biodiversity and coastal resilience, making it a prime example of a carbon offset project with a multiplier effect.

Supporting UN Sustainable Development Goals Through Blue Carbon Projects

Delta Blue Carbon directly supports multiple UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), furthering our mission as a sustainable last mile delivery provider with a global perspective:

  • Goal 13: Climate Action – Sequestering carbon on a large scale, the project actively combats climate change.
  • Goal 14: Life Below Water – Restoring mangroves helps rebuild aquatic ecosystems, benefiting fish populations and local fisheries.
  • Goal 15: Life on Land – Stabilizing coastal areas, mangroves prevent erosion, support biodiversity, and protect local communities.
  • Goal 1: No Poverty – Revitalizing natural resources enhances livelihoods for communities reliant on fishing and sustainable forestry.
  • Goal 2: Zero Hunger – Healthier ecosystems mean more productive fisheries, supporting food security in the region.
