Frequently asked
questions
A carbon credit is a verified environmental asset representing 1 metric tonne of carbon dioxide (or equivalent greenhouse gas) that has been either removed from the atmosphere or avoided entirely through carbon projects. Organisations use these credits to neutralise their residual emissions as part of a credible net-zero or sustainability strategy.
Our projects generate credits by physically drawing down CO₂ from the atmosphere. Through regenerative practices, such as reforestation, afforestation, agroforestry, and improved soil management, Green Earth transforms degraded landscapes into thriving carbon sinks that naturally lock carbon into the soil and tree biomass.
Our energy-efficient cookstove projects on the other hand reduce the amount of carbon emissions emitted from traditional cooking methods and deforestation for firewood purposes. The amount of carbon sequestered or avoided by these projects can be quantified and certified as carbon credits.
We eliminate middleman risk by acting as the end-to-end project developer. Green Earth utilises rigorous digital Monitoring, Reporting, and Verification (MRV) alongside leading third-party scientific verification with standards like Verra and the Gold Standard to ensure that every credit we issue is real, additional, and permanent.
Yes. Green Earth enables you to directly procure high-integrity, compliance-grade carbon credits straight from our active on-the-ground projects. We can also source credits for you from any high-quality project around the globe, aligned with your needs.
Carbon drawdown is just the baseline. Green Earth’s initiatives are designed to provide numerous social and environmental co-benefits and revive entire ecosystems.
These benefits include job creation and education in local communities, additional revenue streams for local farmers, and enhanced resilience to climate impacts such as floods and droughts. Our work actively restores severely degraded soil, rebuilds critical wildlife habitats, protects endangered biodiversity, and stabilises local water cycles.
We partner directly with local farmers, landowners, and communities, placing them at the centre of the restoration process. Green Earth projects provide economic opportunities and ecosystem services. They create sustainable livelihoods by improving agricultural yields, providing vital resources and training, and establishing long-term, reliable revenue streams from environmental markets.
Yes, risks include the potential failure of projects due to ecological or socio-economic factors.
To mitigate these risks, all our projects are strategically designed to maximise resilience and minimise the risk of failure. For instance, we implement fire breaks to guard against fires, plant biodiverse native tree species to create forests resilient to diseases, and work closely with local communities to protect the projects from illegal logging. These measures are critical in safeguarding the success of our projects.
Additionally, our projects are certified by third-party standards, like the Verified Carbon Standard (VCS). VCS employs a mechanism known as a 'buffer pool.' Each project is required to allocate a certain percentage of its carbon credits to this buffer pool, based on the assessed risk level of the project. For example, our agroforestry project in Kenya needs to set aside 10% of its total carbon credits into the buffer pool. This allocation means the project developer cannot sell these reserved credits, as they are allocated to the buffer pool.
This buffer pool serves as a safety net for all carbon projects under this certification. Should any project fail, the buffer pool ensures that the committed carbon sequestration still occurs. This system provides an added layer of reliability and assurance to our partners and stakeholders.
Prices vary depending on the specific project, geographic location, and the volume of your purchase. Because genuine nature restoration requires continuous, on-the-ground stewardship, our pricing reflects the true ecological and social value of the work.
Depending on the project and volume, prices range between €15–€40 per tonne of CO2 (ex VAT). It’s important to note that carbon prices in the market vary based on various factors, such as location, verification, quality, and co-benefits. Green Earth’s carbon credits are highly valued as they are generated by high-quality, verified projects that deliver many co-benefits.
Reducing emissions and compensating for the remainder go hand in hand as complementary strategies to minimise negative environmental impacts and maximise positive contributions towards sustainability. But the one does not need to precede the other.
Internal reductions are a critical component of your sustainability strategy. This involves optimising production processes, improving energy efficiency, and adopting cleaner technologies. However, it's often challenging to reduce emissions to zero due to technical and economic limitations. This is where compensation, typically through carbon credits and investing in nature-restoration projects, becomes crucial.
Compensation allows organisations to compensate for unavoidable or past emissions by supporting projects that reduce or capture emissions elsewhere. This dual approach not only helps mitigate your total carbon footprint but also supports broader environmental and social goals, such as biodiversity conservation, community development, and resilience to climate impacts. By actively reducing and compensating for emissions, stakeholders can demonstrate a strong commitment to environmental stewardship and sustainability, thereby enhancing their reputation and fulfilling their social responsibilities. Together, these actions create a comprehensive strategy for addressing environmental degradation and contributing positively to our planet's health and future.
