Verified Impact
All projects are third-party verified by Verra, The Gold Standard or Climate Action Reserve (CAR), oversight that ensures all contributions are directed to the highest quality projects.
Due Diligence
Projects are rigorously and independently verified by trusted third-party layers
Additionality
Projects are additional to business-as-usual, meaning the projects would not otherwise be developed without your carbon offset contributions
Permanent
Projects provide emission reductions that are both measurable and permanent according to the highest internationally recognized standards and audits
Impact Projects
Your Climate Membership invests directly in the projects featured below, and we will continue to enhance and diversify your project portfolio to ensure we deliver maximum impact with every dollar invested, and with a focused strategy on maximizing your impact ROI.
Rimba Raya REDD+
Location: Indonesian Borneo
Intervention: Peatland Protection REDD+
Verification: Verra, CCB, SDVista
The Rimba Raya Biodiversity Reserve is located in Central Kalimantan, Indonesian Borneo, and is one of the largest REDD+ peatland forest projects in the world, avoiding nearly 130 million tonnes of carbon emissions.
Rimba Raya provides a buffer zone between the palm oil industry and the Tanjung Puting National Park, home to one of the last remaining wild populations of orangutans on earth.
In 2020, the project became the first REDD+ project in the world to be audited for compliance under the SD Vista Standard – achieving the highest possible rating of contributing to all 17 UN SDGs.
Manoa REDD+
Location: Brazil
Intervention: Avoided Deforestation REDD+
Verification: Verra, CCB
The Manoa REDD+ Project is located in the state of Rondônia, protecting 73,000 hectares of forest, in the region that has experienced one of the highest rates of deforestation in the Amazon, due to large-scale operations that clear forests for beef and soy commodities.
Manoa is recognized by FAO (Food and Ag Organization of the U.N.) as an exemplary case of sustainable forest management.
Mai Ndombe REDD+
Location: Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC)
Intervention: Avoided Deforestation REDD+
Verification: Verra, CCB
Mai Ndombe protects over 250,000 hectares within the world's second largest intact rainforest, the Congo. The rainforest is home to the bonobo, the endangered great ape that is humankind’s closest relative and found only in the Congo Basin, the endangered forest elephant, and the hippopotamus.
A mix of tropical and swamp forests, the project area is also part of the globally significant Lac Tele-Lac Tumba landscape, one of the most important wetlands in the world and the largest freshwater area on the African continent.
The project also empowers communities in one of the world’s most impoverished countries by creating a pathway to low-carbon economic development, agricultural and economic diversification, education, and healthcare.
Keo Seima Wildlife Sanctuary
Location:Cambodia
Intervention:Avoided Deforestation REDD+
Verification:Verra, CCB
The Keo Seima Wildlife Sanctuary, is a REDD+ project in partnership with the Royal Government of Cambodia's Ministry of Environment. The project protects 160,000 hectares, which is home to over 1,000 species, including more than 85 globally threatened species.
The project area has the highest recorded bird diversity in Cambodia, with over 350 species. It is also home to the world's largest known populations of Black-shanked douc langur and Yellow-cheeked crested gibbons, and it is especially important for monkeys, lesser apes, and lorises, with seven primate species living within its protected boundaries. Fewer than 500 endangered Asian Elephants are found in Cambodia.
Saint Nikola Wind
Location: Bulgaria
Intervention: Renewable Wind Power
Verification: Verra
The Saint Nikola Wind Farm is a 156 MW, grid-connected, renewable energy wind farm in Bulgaria. Bulgaria was admitted into the European Union in 2007. The Project consists of a new electrical substation and 52 wind turbines, each with a capacity of 3MW. By producing electricity from a renewable emission-free energy source, the Project contributes to the sustainable, socio-economic development of the region, and improves the use of local energy resources.
Manantiales Behr Wind
Location: Argentina
Intervention: Renewable Wind Power
Verification: Verra
The Manantiales Behr Wind Power Complex required an initial investment of 200 million dollars, an impressive installation that now reduces fossil fuel generated electricity in Argentina equivalent to 47,500 m3 of diesel or 80 million m3 of natural gas annually. The project provides an annual reduction of 241,600 tons of CO2 from being released into the atmosphere. Manantiales Behr, due to its privileged location, takes advantage of the winds from Patagonia, which have one of the highest factors in the world in terms of installed power capacity.
Intercepting Ocean Plastics
Location: Southeast Asia
Intervention: Plastic pollution recovery
Verification: Plastic Bank
Taking proactive steps to curb plastic pollution is essential for achieving sustainability objectives. Carbon Checkout has partnered with Plastic Bank, to play a crucial role in preventing plastic waste from reaching our oceans. Through this collaboration, plastic collection initiatives are facilitated within a 50-kilometer radius of ocean-bound waterways and coastlines.
Designed to harness the transformative power of community action, these efforts are dedicated to capturing ocean-bound plastics from waterways to safeguard the lifeblood of our planet – our oceans. Each dollar invested, captures 50 plastic bottles from ocean-bound waterways.
