About us
We’ve been delivering convenient and transparent climate action programs since 2019. If you’d like to learn anything more that’s not included here, please simply reach out.
Our mission:
To help small businesses and everyday people take measured and meaningful climate action, through programs that support verified CO2 reductions, while improving the resilience of cultures, communities and biodiversity most at risk from accelerated climate change.
Business as a force for good
From Offset Alliance’s inception, we knew we wanted to hold ourselves to the highest standard for using business as a force for good–not just for the environment, but for all stakeholders that are impacted by our business decisions. We joined the B Corp community in 2019 as a pending organization, and have been a Certified B Corp since 2021.
Our guiding values
Transparency & Accountability
We are committed to providing end-to-end transparency, meaning we disclose exactly what emission factors and resources are used to benchmark your business’s climate impact, and permanently / publicly retire verified carbon offsets used to mitigate your measured climate impact.
Consider All Stakeholders
We acknowledge that individuals, communities, cultures and ecosystems all stand to be positively or negatively affected by the business decisions we make, either directly or indirectly–so we strive to gain the most holistic view of these potential impacts before making business decisions.
Trust Through Communication
We believe that honest and open communications and collaboration are foundational for effective partnerships, and to making the most positive and lasting impact through our work. Our success to date always has, and our success moving forward always will, depend on deep trust.
Our give back and its impact
Effective climate action requires more than CO2 reductions and offsets. It requires fixing societal inequalities that undermine progress and sustainability. We donate 2% of our revenues to partner charities whose work is foundational to ours–that improves lives, and helps sustain our positive environmental impact well into the future. These donations are third-party verified by B Lab, as part of our B Corp certification.
