Our Carbon Reducing Projects

Each of the projects we work with are examined in-depth through exhaustive on-site verifications by recognized accredited organizations. This guarantees that the benefits you earn by spending time on the site translate into transparent, high quality carbon offsets.

Our current projects include:

Van Eck Forest

Emerald Dairy

Turning cow waste into energy is one objective of Wisconsin’s Emerald Dairy. The Dairy uses an anaerobic digester that treats cow waste to reduce methane emissions and generate energy and heat. The process reduces risk of water pollution and minimizes area odors.

Newton-McDonald Landfill

Landfills are the largest source of anthropogenic methane emissions in the U.S. Landfill methane is produced when organic materials are decomposed by bacteria in the absence of oxygen. The Newton-McDonald Landfill Project offsets these emissions by flaring the accumulated methane and reducing its negative impact on our planet.

Usimart Biomass

The Usimart thermo-electric plant in Brazil uses only wood waste to generate electricity for the town of Colniza and reduces methane emissions due to controlled combustion of waste. It avoids the methane emissions generated during decomposition and puts waste to a good use.

Ningxia Tianjing Wind Farm

The main application of wind power is to generate electricity. Large scale wind farms are connected to electrical grids. Individual turbines provide electricity to isolated locations very efficiently while avoiding carbon emissions typically related to the generation of energy through the burning of fossil fuels.
