G2 Venture Partners invests in companies that transform traditional industries in novel, sustainable ways. Taking care of the planet is core to our mission. To celebrate Earth Day we want to highlight five of our portfolio companies that will help you be more sustainable.

1. Convert your home utilities to clean energy with Arcadia.

Two-thirds of Americans can’t take advantage of rooftop solar. Arcadia’s technology can connect you with a local solar farm so you can get all the benefits of solar and save on your power bill — up to 10%. Signup takes two minutes and can be started here.

2. Buy clothing from brands that use sustainable materials, like Sheertex’s unbreakable tights.

Sheertex’s founder, Katherine Homuth, was fed up with old-fashioned disposable hosiery, so she made the toughest tights in the world made out of ethical materials.

3. Say goodbye to fast fashion and hello to circular shopping by using brands partnered with Trove.

Trove partners with brands like Lulu Lemon, Levi’s, Patagonia, REI, Eileen Fisher and others and enables them to take back items from customer’s closets while maintaining control of their brand equity and owning the customer experience.

4. Buy a used car with Shift

Shop for used cars on Shift’s website, they’ll bring the car to your home for a test drive and then complete the paperwork on the spot in about an hour.

5. Eat more organic foods, like Pivot Bio’s popcorn grown using no synthetic nitrogen fertilizer.

Synthetic nitrogen fertilizer accounts for more than 2% of global greenhouse gas emissions. The runoff from this fertilizer contributes to dead zones in the ocean where marine life can’t survive. Pivot Bio’s goal is to transform the agricultural industry by reducing synthetic nitrogen fertilizer usage.
