EcoCart has scoured the globe for carbon offset projects that are truly additive (meaning new), permanent, and without unintended consequences (i.e., creating more carbon elsewhere, like a game of Whack-a-Mole). All of the projects are independently certified to internationally recognized standards. In addition to carbon reduction, all of the projects include an element of social good such as protecting an endangered species of animal, or creating local jobs.
Every project we fund is triple-verified, which means:
- The project’s financials, management team, project site, and carbon reduction method are carefully vetted.
- At least one of the world’s major carbon standards reviews the project.
- Global Offset Research verifies the project against a second list of international standards.
