In a transparent ecosystem, the simple act of calculating your carbon footprint and making contributions to mitigate it generates a positive ripple effect – not just locally, but on a global scale.
Carbon offsetting is the process of funding projects that reduce or remove greenhouse gas emissions to compensate for one’s own emissions, in order to achieve a net zero carbon footprint.
Each ton of carbon absorbed from the atmosphere constitutes a carbon credit or carbon offset. To make sure these credits are legit, they have to be approved by independent groups like Verra or Gold Standard. These groups make sure the project is actually making a positive impact on the environment and wouldn’t have happened without the project. ClimateTrade also does extra work to make sure everything is legit, like using blockchain to keep track of the credits so they’re not counted twice.
Yes, anybody can purchase these carbon credits with the purpose of offsetting their carbon footprint and achieving carbon neutrality.
When offsetting your carbon footprint, you are directly contributing to sustainable projects related to reforestation, green energy, biodiversity, and more! Importantly, the principle of additionality ensures that your contributions are enabling reductions in Greenhouse Gasses (GHGs) that would not happen without these projects.
The carbon offsetting impact is positive and real! ClimateTrade only offers carbon offsets that have been certified by one of the top global standards, and which pass due diligence tests around additionality, permanence, and leakage. The developer of the sustainable project you choose will use your contribution to grow, escalate, and replicate.
Our platform provides traceable financing to a wide range of certified sustainability and carbon offsetting projects all around the world. From reforestation and renewable energy to biodiversity and community projects, your actions directly support those who work every day to mitigate the climate crisis.
There are multiple ways to generate positive impact, and you can find them all here on our platform.
