Spark Climate Solutions: Grantee Spotlight
.png)
The Giving Green Fund plans to award a restricted grant to Spark Climate Solutions (Spark) for its enteric methane mitigation program, which aims to reduce methane emissions from ruminants like cattle and sheep. Spark is a US-based organization with US and international workstreams. It accelerates emerging climate mitigation strategies, with a current focus on short-lived climate pollutants like methane.
Spark’s work falls within our philanthropic strategy of reducing food sector emissions. While we believe reducing meat consumption can have a bigger impact on cutting food sector emissions than focusing only on enteric methane, we still think efforts to reduce enteric methane are worthwhile. They offer a backup in case global meat demand does not decrease significantly, and the opportunity to reduce emissions from any remaining meat demand. Please see Giving Green’s deep dive report on food sector emissions for more information, including risks and potential co-benefits, recommended sub-strategies, theory of change, funding need, and key uncertainties.
