• Carbon credits are measurable, verifiable emission reductions from certified climate action projects.These projects reduce, remove or avoid greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. But they also bring a whole host of other positive benefits, for example, they empower communities, protect ecosystems, restore forests or reduce reliance on fossil fuels.
  • Projects must adhere to a rigorous set of criteria to pass verification by third-party agencies and a review by a panel of experts at a leading carbon offset standard like Verra or Gold Standard.
  • After an organization or an individual buys a carbon credit, the credit is permanently retired so it can’t be reused.
