Episode 16: Christina Rasmussen and Daniela Pillhofer (Little Wine) on Carbon Neutral Shipping
Listen now
Description
I speak with Christina Rasmussen and Daniela Pillhofer, cofounders of Little Wine about carbon neutral shipping. Little Wine is an online wine content platform focused on organic plus and climate positive growers. Little Wine also has an online bottle shop and wine club, with carbon neutral shipping. Since their founding in April 2020, they have offset 100+ tonnes of CO2 to date. According to German nonprofit Atmosfair, that’s around 100 round trip flights from London to New York City. Christina and Daniela talk how they chose EcoCart and a water purification project in Cambodia for their carbon neutral shipping program, where they have prevented 25,000 trees from being chopped down to date. We also talk about the future of wine distribution, and how they are inspired by fashion brand Organic Basics and Jancis Robinson.
