More About Our Products
At Carbon Credibility, we believe that every person can take real action against climate change. Our platform makes that contribution accessible and simple. Below, we present our carbon product collections designed to create a positive impact.
Commitments to Our Planet With this collection, you can offset your annual carbon footprint or subscribe to do so each year. Our products are calculated based on the average emissions per person. For example:
- In Latin America, the average person emits 5 tons of CO2 per year.
- In the United States, this number rises to 15 tons. One tree in the Amazon can absorb 0.02 tons of carbon per year. This means that with your commitment, you’ll offset the equivalent of what 500 to 750 trees capture in a year. Not only do you help reduce CO2, but you also protect ecosystems, water, and biodiversity, while supporting local communities that rely on these projects for their livelihood.
Footprint-Free Life This collection is designed so that your lifestyle leaves a positive impact instead of a negative footprint. Imagine enjoying your vacations or road trips knowing that you’ve already offset the emissions from those journeys. With every carbon credit you purchase, you make each aspect of your life greener and more responsible.
Gifts For a Life Without Footprint Do you have a friend or family member concerned about climate change? Our green gifts are the perfect present. By gifting carbon credits, you’re not only sharing environmental awareness but also allowing others to take direct action in reducing their carbon footprint. It’s a meaningful and impactful gift.
Customized Impact We know that everyone has different needs. With our Customized Impact option, you can buy between 1 and 100 carbon credits, adjusting your contribution to what you need and want to achieve. This flexibility allows you to personalize your impact in a meaningful way.
Every carbon credit has a project behind it. But how do we select these projects? Let us explain what we do to ensure that every credit you purchase truly creates a positive impact.
Rigorous Project Verification Every project we support undergoes a strict validation and verification process carried out by recognized organizations such as Verra and Gold Standard. These organizations ensure that projects meet strict requirements:
- Additionality: The project must demonstrate that it would not have been carried out without the sale of carbon credits.
- Permanence: Carbon reductions must be long-lasting, with no risk of being reversed.
- Monitoring and Reporting: Projects are constantly monitored to ensure that carbon reductions are real and verifiable.
- Avoiding Double Counting: It is ensured that credits are not counted in more than one market or project.
Additional Benefits
Beyond reducing carbon, we seek projects that offer additional benefits. For example, reforestation projects that not only capture carbon but also restore ecosystems, protect water sources, and create local jobs. This way, we ensure that your purchase has an impact beyond CO2, benefiting both the planet and the communities involved.
