Carbon offset projects we support
Woodland Carbon – International + United Kingdom
An international carbon offset project combined with the Woodland Carbon Code. Aimed at restoring and/or foresting rough pasture into habitat that benefits local wildlife and society.
Ocean Protection –
Worldwide
By offsetting one tonne of CO2, 10kg of plastic is collected.
This corresponds to approx. 500 plastic bottles. In this way, the project protects marine life, microorganisms, and endangered species.
Wind Energy –
Vader Piet, Aruba
A 10-turbine wind farm with a capacity of 30 MW generates up to 15 per cent of Aruba’s total power. This saves around 152,000 tonnes of carbon emissions per year and reinforces the independent energy supply in Aruba.
