With ClimatePositive, you help fund CO2 reduction projects in undeveloped countries, verified by the highest environmental standards, Gold Standard and the Verified Carbon Standard. These projects have many social benefits, such as, providing jobs or education to local population, improving local’s health with clean water and solar powered cookstoves. We have a large pool of projects that are separated into different categories: renewable energy, forestry, community projects, as well as methane capture & storage projects. These projects do this by removing existing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere or by preventing new emissions from happening.

ClimatePositive funds a range of different projects that fulfil UN Sustainable Development Goals. Pooling the funds allows us to keep our offsetting prices as low as possible. Were we to make the process more complicated and personalised, the price charged would have to rise. For bespoke services, please send us an email at support@climatepositive.com

The UN Sustainable Development Goals are part of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and work towards reducing poverty and inequality, improving health and education, and spur economic growth – all while protecting forests and oceans to ultimately tackle climate change.

ClimatePositive only purchases offsets in the “The Gold Standard” or “Verified Carbon Standard” programmes. They are two of the six registries chosen by the United Nations for its CORSIA scheme. For further details on CORSIA, click here.

- The Gold Standard
- Verified Carbon Standard
- American Carbon Registry
- China Greenhouse Gas (GHG)
- Voluntary Emission Reduction Program
- Clean Development Mechanism (CDM)
- Climate Action Reserve

These six registries were chosen after a lengthy research process. In its assessment and recommendation of registry programmes, the UN’s ICAO Councils Technical Advisory Body highlighted the following criteria:

Permanence:Carbon offset credits must represent emissions reductions, avoidance, or carbon sequestration that are permanent.

Additionality: Carbon offset programmes must generate units that represent emissions reductions, avoidance, or removals that are on top of any reduction or removals required by law, regulation or legally binding mandate.

Avoidance of double counting towards mitigation obligations:Measures must be in place to avoid double issuance, double use, and double claiming.

Monitoring, reporting and verification: Emissions reduction is calculated in a conservative and transparent manner, verified by an accredited independent entity

Public disclosure of sustainable development: A programme should list the criteria used regarding alignment with the SDGs.

Our view is the transparency offered by Gold Standard and VCS suits our customers. We have listened to that feedback, and by only funding projects in the Gold Standard and VCS programmes, our customers can be assured by the most rigorous verification possible.

ClimatePositive funds projects through the purchase of carbon offsets. Once verified, we retire the carbon offsets on your behalf.

We all need to reduce our emissions to stop the consequences of climate change, and offsets are a short-term solution to fix that. We know offsets can be used against other emission reduction techniques to help companies bridge the transition towards a zero-carbon economy.

All our projects are contributed to equally. Each month we calculate the total amount of carbon that needs to be retired and share it equally between all the projects, this way you get to help multiple projects instead of just one.
