The Sustainable Markets Initiative today announced that LanzaTech
Global (Nasdaq: LNZA), the carbon recycling company transforming
waste carbon into sustainable raw materials, has been awarded its
2023 Terra Carta Seal. The Seal recognises global companies which
are actively leading the charge to create a climate and
Nature-positive future.
The Terra Carta Seal is awarded to companies which have
demonstrated the success of a high-impact, large scale company-wide
project, initiative or strategy which aligns with one or more of
the Sustainable Markets Initiative’s ten Terra Carta Articles. The
Articles underpin the Terra Carta, the Sustainable Markets
Initiative’s guiding mandate which provides a roadmap and framework
to accelerate the transition to an ambitious and sustainable
future, placing Nature, People and Planet at the heart of global
value creation.
LanzaTech takes carbon capture a step further by transforming it
into something valuable and useful at scale that directly replaces
virgin fossil carbon in consumer goods, chemicals, and fuels. Using
its Biorecycling technology process, LanzaTech captures and
processes multiple forms of waste carbon before they can enter the
atmosphere and cause harm. Emissions sources like steel mills and
landfill sites can attach LanzaTech’s bioreactors to their
facilities, which then act like a brewery. Instead of using yeast
to convert sugar into beer, proprietary microbes convert
carbon-rich gases into essential raw materials like ethanol, a
primary ingredient in fuels and a range of everyday consumer goods.
This process allows LanzaTech to create value from waste and enable
a circular carbon economy. Its Biorecycling technology is operating
at six commercial plants which collectively have the capacity to
abate 500,000 tonnes of CO2 per year.
LanzaTech joins 16 other companies spanning multiple geographies
and industries to be awarded the 2023 Terra Carta Seal. They
include:
- Airbus
- CDPQ
- DLA Piper
- EY
- Haier Smart Home
- Hitachi
- LanzaTech
- Novartis
- Orange

- Carbon Clean

Jennifer Jordan-Saifi, CEO, Sustainable Markets
Initiative, said: “The Sustainable Markets
Initiative’s Terra Carta Seal recognises those companies which are
taking great strides in delivering real-world outcomes. As we stand
on the eve of COP28, public, private sector and philanthropic
actors will come together at the inaugural Business and
Philanthropy Climate Forum to bridge the gap between ambition and
action. It is examples exemplified by the 2023 Terra Carta Seal
winners that are helping to inspire and lead the way.”
“LanzaTech is humbled by this recognition and spurred on to
continue striving toward the creation of a circular carbon
economy,” said Dr. Jennifer Holmgren, CEO of
LanzaTech. “There is still hope for us to change the
course of our planet’s current climate trajectory. At LanzaTech, we
are blazing a path for a new way of living better with our planet
by treating carbon as a precious resource.”
The Terra Carta Seal was launched in 2021 at COP26 by His
Majesty King Charles III when he was the Prince of Wales. Since its
inception, the Sustainable Markets Initiative has awarded its
coveted Seal to just 83 companies globally.
For the first time this year, the judging process involved
independent, external partners Verdantix and the Expert Review
Panel, who worked together to assess the eligibility and impact of
each nominated project against recognised global sustainability
criteria.
This year’s cohort of winners impressed the judges with the
breadth and scope of their projects, which included pioneering use
of hydrogen and engineering-based initiatives to support carbon
emission reductions, to the development of new frameworks to
support the distribution of private capital, at scale, into
transition-related infrastructure across the African continent.
David Metcalfe, CEO, Verdantix,
said: “We are privileged to work with the
Sustainable Markets Initiative, contributing our expertise in
independent evaluation to the judging process. We take great pride
in being an integral part of this esteemed global initiative,
alongside a distinguished and diverse panel of experts. Together,
we are dedicated to acknowledging and applauding the companies who
lead the way in demonstrating their commitment to creating a
sustainable future.”
