## Sustainability story

Like a network of mycelium, we believe that all of our practices at rainbo should work in tandem with one another to help keep our planet clean, healthy and happy. Our priorities are to spread mushroom healing and education in the most sustainable way possible. For us, it's about progress, not perfection.

## Emissions (2025)

**Methodology:** Rainbo's inventory uses spending data to estimate GHG emissions. Rainbo attests to the accuracy of their data inputs and the Change Climate Project team reviews the submission for compliance with the Standard.

- Scope 1: 0 tCO2e
- Scope 2 (location-based): 4 tCO2e
- Scope 2 (market-based): 4 tCO2e
- Scope 3 (location-based): 611 tCO2e
- Scope 3 (market-based): 611 tCO2e
- **Total (location-based): 615 tCO2e**
- **Total (market-based): 615 tCO2e**

**Emissions intensity:** Per unit of product — unit of product

## Reduction plans

### Reduction action plans
- **Scope 3** — We plan to start shipping from the US with a US 3PL to reduce our shipping footprint (source: Downstream shipping, target: Q3 2022, completion: 100%)
- **Scope 3** — We plan to swap out virgin cardboard and plastics for recycled materials, biodegradable materials or bioplastics for our shipping needs. (source: Packaging, target: Q1 2023, completion: 80%)
- **Scope 3** — Source raw materials closer to manufacturing to reduce miles traveled by 50% across all USA tincture raw materials sourcing. (source: Upstream shipping, target: Q1 2024, completion: 25%)
- **Scope 3** — Manufacture goods closer to our consumers to reduce miles traveled by 50% across all USA shipments. (source: Downstream shipping, target: Q1 2024, completion: 25%)
- **Scope 3** — Redesign cardboard, bubble wrap, and miscellaneous dunnage across B2C shipments to include a recyclable cardboard unit carton to reduce overall shipping materials 30%. (source: Packaging, target: Q3 2026, completion: 80%)
- **Scope 3** — Redesign packaging dunnage across B2B shipments to utilize new master cartons and reduce materials 30%. (source: Packaging, target: Q3 2026, completion: 90%)
- **Scope 3** — We will reduce the amount of returns shipping by incentivizing customers to keep products instead of returning them so we can eliminate return emissions. We will do this by implementing flexible product return policy. (source: Downstream shipping, target: 2027, completion: 0%)
- **Scope 3** — Reduce total business travel for all employees by continuing to incentivize virtual meetings and attending fewer trade shows. (source: Business travel, target: 2026, completion: 0%)
