Sharethrough launches GreenPMPs™, part of the initiative to decarbonize digital advertising with Green Media Products in partnership with Scope3, becoming the first SSP to offer carbon neutral media.
Advertising is responsible for a 28% uptick in carbon footprint for the average consumer. More specifically, a single video or display ad impression represents an average of 1g of CO2e.
That’s also equivalent to...
Round trip flight from Boston to London (per passenger)
Fully charging 121k smartphones
Plastic straws

OMD UK is proud to be an anchor partner for this initiative, bringing more awareness and real solutions to the entire digital media ecosystem. We’re excited to see the results so we can continue to learn and advance our work in this area as we look to support our own and our clients sustainability ambitions."
"GreenPMPs™ are the easiest and most impactful thing brands can do to help decarbonize advertising. By building carbon into its GreenPMPs™, Sharethrough is allowing brands and media buyers to take action to fight climate change without compromising on campaign results."
For every campaign delivered on Sharethrough GreenPMPs™, Scope3 measures the carbon emission of the entire programmatic supply chain, then allocates part of the media cost towards high quality carbon removal projects that equates to the exact cost of carbon emitted from that media.
Direct air capture (DAC) technologies extract CO2 directly from the atmosphere. A process similar to what plants and trees do every day as they photosynthesize, Direct Air Capture technology does it much faster, with a smaller land footprint, and delivers the carbon dioxide in a pure, compressed form that can then be stored underground or reused.
Scientists say that more carbon resides in soil than in the atmosphere and all plant life combined. And when plant growth increases, soil carbon does not. Therefore, carbon sequestration is a way to remove CO2 from the air and store it somewhere it can't easily escape: in soils.
Restoring our forests helps wildlife habitat and also helps fight climate change. The process of reforestation consists of replanting trees in areas that have been affected by natural disturbances such as wildfires, drought and other natural disasters.
