Verified
climate projects

Climate projects all have different impact timelines when it comes to reducing global green house gas emissions. We intentionally diversify our portfolio of verified projects to include a range of locations, timelines and approaches.

Every project is third-party audited to meet the world’s most rigorous standards for verified green house gas reductions and ocean bound plastic recovery.

Where we make verified, positive impact

  • Temperate rainforest Alaska

    Alaska, United States

    FORESTRY

    Protects old-growth forests in areas historically logged for timber, helping biodiversity regenerate and thrive. Standard: Verra | CURRENT

  • Brazil

    RENEWABLE ENERGY

    Delivers run-of-river hydroelectric power, lowering the carbon intensity of energy production in southern Brazil. Standard: Verra | CURRENT

  • Coastal British Columbia, Canada

    Coastal British Columbia, Canada

    FORESTRY

    Converts privately owned forest lands to protected forest, comprising old growth and ecologically sensitive areas. Standard: Verra | PAST

  • Workers standing by Viñales Biomass Power Plant  in Chile

    Chile

    RENEWABLE / BIOMASS ENERGY

    Displaces historically coal-intensive energy with local and abundantly available sawdust waste as biomass fuel. Standard: Verra | PAST

  • Workers at Matavén Forest Carbon Project in Colombia

    Colombia

    FORESTRY

    Protects more than 1.5 million hectares of natural habitat in the Indigenous Reservation of the Matavén Forest. Standard: Verra | CURRENT

  • Water running through run-of-river hydroelectric dam Escuela de Minas in Colombia

    Colombia

    RENEWABLE ENERGY

    Delivers run-of-river hydroelectric power, lowering the carbon intensity of energy production in Colombia. Standard: Verra | CURRENT

  • Project managers overlooking expansive protected grasslands in Colorado

    Colorado, United States

    GRASSLANDS PRESERVATION

    Acquires and preserves biodiverse shortgrass prairie ecosystems on the southern Great Plains in Colorado. Standard: Climate Action Reserve | CURRENT
