Max Burgers

This Swedish-based fast-food burger chain has been cooking burgers for 50 years, recently expanding out of Sweden into Norway and the Middle East. In 2018, it moved to offset the carbon footprint created by its operations (especially difficult when that involves serving beef). Now the whole restaurant is "climate positive," which means that the company offsets more than the entire supply chain produces (mostly via paying for tree planting).
