August 17, 2021 - Media and Games Invest SE ("MGI" or the "Company", ISIN: MT0000580101; ticker M8G; Nasdaq First North Premier Growth Market and Scale Segment Frankfurt Stock Exchange) is focusing on improving its operations to reduce its CO₂ footprint throughout the whole group. While the primary goal is to identify potential to further reduce its footprint together with Planetly, emissions that can't be reduced will be set off.  Furthermore and as part of its efforts to contribute to climate action and to compensate past emissions which can no longer be reduced, the company has decided to offset its carbon emissions for 2020 by cooperating with Planetly. The collaboration was announced on June 14, 2021 and is a further step for MGI to take on its responsibility for a more sustainable world.

MGI is making good progress in carefully selecting its suppliers and trying to reduce its carbon emission in general. To get to a carbon neutrality as a first step, Planetly has analyzed MGI's carbon emissions for the year 2020. A total of 4,949t CO₂ was measured for MGI which also includes any CO₂ emissions from datacenters, offices, travelling, suppliers and MGI gamers.

For the offset of the 2020 CO₂ emissions, MGI has asked its employees to vote for the projects they would like to support. Employees were able to choose between 11 projects in the following categories: community projects, nature-based projects and renewable energy projects. The chosen projects are a Clean Water Project in Rwanda, a REDD+ Rainforest Project in Borneo (REDD: Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation) and a Solar Power Project in Kenya. The Water Project in Rwanda so far provides 11,870 people with access to safe water and saves around 10,000 tCO2e each year while the project in Borneo prevents 64,500 hectares of carbon-rich peat swamp forests with high biodiversity from conversion into palm oil plantations. The aim of the program in Kenya is the dissemination of battery-charged solar home systems (SHS) to provide basic lighting service to households currently using fossil fuel-based lighting.

By reducing it's carbon footprint and offsetting it's carbon emissions for 2020, MGI has now for the first time reached carbon neutrality for 2020, earlier than anticipated.

In a next step, in cooperation with Planetly, MGI will focus on identifying additional actions how the company can reduce its CO₂ footprint further over time as well as compensating the past footprint.
