Green-e Climate Certified Carbon Offsets

Green-e Climate is the first and only independent, third-party certification program for retail carbon offsets sold in the voluntary market. It ensures that Certified Offsets contain only verified reductions from projects that meet high-quality, endorsed standards, and that participating offset sellers deliver correct volumes and types of emissions reductions on behalf of their customers. Green-e Climate also enforces customer disclosure requirements to ensure offsets are as advertised and that full and accurate information is provided to the consumer.
