Tree Planting
We buddy carbon offsets with tree planting. For each tonne of carbon offset, we will arrange for a tree to be planted.
Our chosen tree planting partner, Eden Reforestation Projects, plants trees in locations such as Madagascar, Haiti, Nepal, Indonesia, and Mozambique. These are all nations that have been ravished by deforestation.
Trees provide a habitat for animals, purify water sources, control flooding and erosion and help to replenish the soil with nutrients needed for farming.
Carbon Offsets
We use carbon offsets, also know as carbon credits, only from the highest quality offset schemes. These include the Gold Standard, Verified Carbon Standard (VCS) and the United Nations Clean Development Mechanism (UN CDM).
These are all schemes which have a verification process, to ensure that carbon offset credits are:
- Additional
- Transparent
- Traceable
- Verifiable
Carbon offset projects include renewable energy projects such as wind turbines, solar PV and biogas, amongst others. For more information, check out our frequently asked questions.
