Emissions from shipments account for about a quarter of the company`s carbon footprint, which it will offset by the beginning of the year, Michaud said. Glovo, which operates in 26 countries where it delivers everything from meals to food to medicines, is the third Spanish tech company to surpass the $1 billion mark.

The Barcelona-based company said it had raised 150 million euros ($165.33 million) from Mubadala and other investors, including venture capital fund Lakestar, as well as Idinvest Partners and Drake QSR, which had invested in Glovo in the past. Other sources of emissions in the company`s direct value chain include offices, business travel and data centers, as well as food waste and packaging, which will be fully offset by the end of next year. Glovo said this was the first round of funding Mubadala was involved in, saying the startup had now achieved “unicorn” status, a term used for a private company that reaches a valuation of $1 billion or more.

The startup, which aims to become profitable by mid-2021, could also try to negotiate discounts on e-bikes and other vehicles for its riders, Michaud said. Glovo said it would initially buy 30,000 carbon credits — one ton of carbon dioxide warming the planet each — from a forest conservation project in Peru through California`s Pachama platform, which also works with Microsoft Corp. According to Spanish media, the government is working on a new law to strengthen the labour rights of independent delivery drivers who work for major platforms such as Glovo and its competitor Deliveroo. “Today, we can`t just go from A to Z, but we decided to compensate as much as possible for the negative part,” Glovo co-founder Sacha Michaud told the Thomson Reuters Foundation. Glovo also aims to reduce emissions through initiatives such as better food waste management, order bundling, providing sustainable packaging to partners, and providing backpacks made from recycled and recyclable materials.
