We are thrilled to announce that Virgin Australia has purchased carbon offsets again through Ripple Africa’s fuel-efficient cookstove project.
This is the impact of their offsets:
🌱 Families are moving from open fires to fuel-efficient cookstoves, easing pressure on Malawi’s forests.
🔥 Firewood use drops dramatically from three bundles per week to one bundle
💨 Homes experience cleaner air, reducing smoke-related health risks for women and children.
🛡️ Safer cooking methods lower the chance of burns and household accidents.
⏰ Families spend less time collecting firewood and cooking, freeing up hours for education, work, and daily life.
Virgin Australia’s choice to support grassroots initiatives reflects how large companies can help accelerate real, measurable climate progress.
A huge thank you to Virgin Australia for taking meaningful action and supporting the people and forests of Malawi again through Ripple Africa.
