A climate contribution equivalent to 376 tonnes of CO₂ emissions!

Since 2017, we have made a voluntary climate contribution every year, which offsets the amount of direct CO₂ emissions released into the atmosphere by the Jebsen & Jessen Hamburg Group. For the 2025 financial year, we have offset a total of 376 tonnes of CO₂ emissions through a climate contribution to the MoorFutures project run by the Ausgleichsagentur Schleswig-Holstein. 

Specifically, this involves a rewetting project in the Grotmoor in Schleswig-Holstein, where previously drained peatland areas are being restored to their natural state. By permanently raising the water level, peat decomposition is reduced, thereby preventing CO₂ emissions and restoring the peatland’s long-term carbon storage function. Furthermore, the project promotes the restoration of habitats typical of peatlands, enhances biodiversity and improves the water retention capacity of the land. 

The project underscores the Jebsen & Jessen Hamburg Group’s commitment to climate protection, as well as to the conservation and promotion of natural habitats and their biodiversity.
