Our carbon credit projects place a strong emphasis on social impact alongside climate mitigation. In many regions in the Global South, communities are heavily affected by climate change while depending directly on natural ecosystems for their income. The need for projects that combine carbon sequestration with livelihood development is therefore particularly high in these regions.

These initiatives are designed to create measurable climate benefits while strengthening local economic stability. By working closely with communities, restoration efforts translate into tangible value on the ground.

We are equally committed to high quality restoration in Europe. For organisations seeking an additional level of verification, third-party validation by Vinçotte is available through our Guarantree label, confirming long term ecological protection and transparent oversight.

We believe climate action should create value both globally and locally. The right balance depends on your strategy, and we are always happy to explore this together.

Carbon credits can support net-zero strategies and carbon neutrality claims. They play a role in neutralising residual emissions after companies have significantly reduced their own footprint.

Under frameworks such as CSRD and the GHG Protocol, companies must first transparently report their Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions and prioritise reductions in line with science-based pathways. For net-zero targets, organisations must explain how residual emissions (typically after achieving 90 to 95 percent reductions) will be addressed and clarify the role credits play in that strategy. Carbon credits do not reduce reported emissions. They must be disclosed separately and double counting is prohibited.

In addition, through a Beyond Value Chain Mitigation approach, organisations can contribute to verified climate projects outside their operational boundaries while continuing to decarbonise internally.

Your investment does not end with the transfer of credits. Through the publicly available dashboards, we won’t only keep you but also your stakeholders updated on the progress made in the field.

The dashboards provide ongoing insight into project information, imagery and news updates, allowing you to follow up on your investment and transparently communicate your impact over time.

For pre-finance projects, this is complemented by rigorous follow-up through certification and verification reports as credits are issued.

The main difference lies in purpose, structure and claims.

Our certified projects are developed under internationally recognised carbon standards and generate independently verified carbon credits. These credits can support net-zero strategies or carbon neutrality claims and follow strict methodologies for carbon accounting, monitoring and verification.

Our non-certified tree planting initiatives focus on high-quality ecosystem restoration without entering formal carbon credit accounting. They are particularly suited for organisations seeking to demonstrate environmental leadership, strengthen stakeholder engagement and contribute to biodiversity and community development without making carbon offset claims.

Both pathways follow our core principles. We plant the right species in the right ecosystems, prioritise local communities and apply rigorous due diligence and monitoring across all projects . The difference is not in commitment to quality, but in the certification framework and how impact can be communicated.

Blue carbon credits are carbon credits generated from the protection, restoration, or sustainable management of coastal and marine ecosystems, such as mangroves, seagrasses, and salt marshes. These ecosystems are highly efficient at sequestering carbon, playing a crucial role in mitigating climate change. Blue carbon credits are important because they help reduce greenhouse gas emissions while preserving vital ecosystems that provide a range of benefits, including biodiversity conservation, coastal protection, and supporting local communities.

In Madagascar, we are developing blue carbon credits in collaboration with our field partner Bôndy, focusing on the restoration and protection of coastal ecosystems to ensure long-term climate resilience and sustainable community development.
