FAQ's

We are building a platform to empower individuals and businesses to calculate their carbon emissions and offset them. We work with carefully selected partners to ensure that sustainability and social integrity are ingrained in our approach from the start.

We are currently hard at work building the platform. If you would like to be notified when we launch, please subscribe to our mailing list.

Collective action only works at scale, and it requires every one of us. That includes you. Taking steps to offset your carbon is one of the biggest measures you can take toward becoming carbon negative.

We all possess the capability to make lifestyle choices which define our relationship with the planet. When made collectively, these decisions can have profound effects, and their impact is amplified. Simply put, if we all make a change today, our impact as a group will be huge. This is the power of collective action.

At its core, an offset is a mechanism that seeks to balance the scales on pollution. We do this by channeling funds into projects that actively remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. This means you can remove the carbon dioxide you have produced. This is carbon offsetting. However, we want to stress it is still better to reduce your carbon footprint in the first place than offset and live an emission heavy lifestyle. But we also acknowledge this cannot always be done. This is where our offsetting schemes come into play.

Ensuring we work with appropriate partners to offset your carbon is crucial. We will only support projects which offset carbon in a truly sustainable manner, with partners who have social integrity ingrained into their business model.

Additionality - the carbon savings would not go ahead without the money we invest. Permanence - carbon savings will be sustained over time, ensuring their longevity. Verifiability - there are robust processes to ensure carbon is offset as described.

We believe the climate crisis has been the elephant in the room for too long. There's a huge amount of space for government and corporations to play their part, but there's also a need to act collectively, as individuals. We are building this platform to enable this, and the sooner we can spread the word, the better.
