          The rise of green products

          Businesses and individuals are increasingly under pressure to improve their sustainability and reduce their carbon footprint. On a local, regional, and international level, there is rising demand for innovative green products and a need for carbon capture, agriculture, nature conservation, and biodiversity solutions.

          Significant opportunities

          Why invest in green projects?

          Green investment has many advantages that provide an opportunity for investors:

          Earn strong returns

          Investing in green projects can be a smart financial decision. They often provide solid returns with stable cash flow and many enjoy the benefit of tax exemption. Our verified carbon projects are no exception. They offer attractive financial returns while also helping to create a more sustainable future.

          Carbon markets are growing

          McKinsey & Company estimates that the annual demand for carbon offsets could reach 1.5–2 gigatonnes by 2030 and 7–13 gigatonnes by 2050. Carbon prices could also rise to $80–$150 per tonne by 2035, estimates the EY Net Zero Centre.

          Diversify your portfolio

          Incorporating green investments into your portfolio can help to diversify your investments and reduce your overall risk. Our carbon projects offer the opportunity to participate in a new and fast-growing market, with a healthy demand, where you can reap the benefits of early investment.

          Contribute to a better future

          By investing in green projects, you are making a meaningful contribution to a better, more sustainable future. All humans and wildlife depend on healthy ecosystems for their survival. We must therefore conserve biodiversity to protect all life on Earth. Our verified carbon projects not only help reduce carbon emissions but also protect and restore nature and biodiversity.

          Attract interest

          Green investment can attract positive public attention due to awareness and interest, making fundraising much more accessible. Green investment can also build trust with stakeholders and meet stakeholder requirements, who are increasingly interested in the social and environmental impact of the companies they support.

          Global commitment

          Investing in green projects is a growing trend, with global commitments increasing. Nations, industries, and companies are committing to meeting net-zero goals—and investors and the financial sector need to join this movement.
