Global Climate Solution Stocks
2023 List

DSR Taiko Berhad is a large producer of Durian, a perennial fruit grown in SE Asia. We do not include them as we are wary of perennials that are generally grown in areas that used to be old growth forest. Even though they are perennials, the climate impact of cutting down the existing forest is far more negative.

PT Asia Sejahtera Mina is an Indonesian company that sells seaweed in Indonesia, largely for human consumption. Seaweed is an important climate solution as it grows very quickly and can be continually harvested.

Maxindo Karya Anugerah sells root-based snacks in Indonesia. We included them for a closer look to see if they could be included as a perennial staple company, but as the harvesting of the roots involves fundamentally killing the plant, we exclude them.

FT Eterindo is an Indonesian producer of palm oil that also uses part of their harvest to create biodiesel. While we do consider biodiesel derived from waste products as a climate solution, and palm oil is technically a perennial crop, we exclude them because how destructive the palm oil industry has been in removing old mangrove forests to plant its plantations.

While Cassava is technically a perennial plant, to harvest it and make tapioca kills the plant because it is derived from the cassava root. Given this, we exclude Premier Quality Starch.

Guan Chong is a Malaysian producer and processor of cocoa beans for chocolate. While cocoa is a perennial staple, the expansion of the industry often comes at the expense of natural forests, which is not beneficial from a climate perspective.

Long An Food Processing is a Vietnamese processor and trader of nuts, many of which are perennials. Because nuts can provide calories every year without needing to harvest the tree, we include them as a climate solution.

Cocoa Processing Company is a Ghanaian processor of cocoa beans for chocolate. While cocoa is a perennial staple, the expansion of the industry often comes at the expense of natural forests, which is not beneficial from a climate perspective.

Multi-Trex integrated is a Nigerian processor of cocoa beans for chocolate. While cocoa is a perennial staple, the expansion of the industry often comes at the expense of natural forests, which is not beneficial from a climate perspective.

Societe Ivoirienne de Coco Rape is an Ivorian distributor of coconut products. While coconut is a perennial fruit, the expansion of the industry often comes at the expense of wild, natural forests, which move us backwards from a climate perspective.

Invicta is a South African provider of construction equipment. While some of their revenue does come from products and projects used to expand the grid, most comes from other segments like providing construction vehicles.

Eaagads is a Kenyan coffee producer in Kenya. While coffee is a perennial plant, we have decided not to include it as a climate solution because it often involves destroying natural forest in order to replace it with coffee plantations.

United Bus Service is a provider of public transportation on the island nation of Mauritius that enables those who are looking to get around to use a bus instead of a car.

Kakuzi is an avocado grower based in Kenya. While they do also grow macadamia nuts which we would include, avocados are more strongly linked to deforestation so we exclude them.

While Shumba Energy in Botswana does engage in renewable energy development, it generates a majority of its revenue from coal mining.

East African Cables, based in Kenya, makes a majority of its revenue from building and supplying cables that are used to expand the electrical grid in East Africa, a key step before mass electrification.

Societe Industrielle is a Tunisian provider of gas, electricity, and water meters. While they do make some revenue from LED light bulbs, it isn't a large part of their business.

All Cosmos Bio-Tech sells fertilizers in Malaysia. We no longer consider fertilizers, even bio-organic ones, a climate solution, as they do not help prevent food waste, so we exclude them. Not to mention most of their fertilizers are for the palm oil industry, which is highly environmentally destructive.

Enel Distribucion Peru is a Peruvian distributor of electricity. Because it owns no generation, it does not meet our utility filters.

Molibdenos y Metales is a Chilean mining company. While it does produce molybdenum, a critical mineral for the climate transition, it also makes rheunium, which is not, so we exclude them.

Enel Distribucion is a Chilean electricity distributor. Because it does not own any generation, we exclude them.
