Offset by Tonnes

If you know the amount of CO2 emissions you would like to offset, select one of our Offset by Tonnes projects to achieve it

Tree-Nation is an authorized distributor of carbon credits, which are units equivalent to the removal or avoidance of one tonne of carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions from our atmosphere. If you have calculated your CO₂ footprint and would like to offset it, we offer the option to do so on either a one-time or recurring basis.

You can choose to offset with the following certification programs:

• Tree-Nation Standard
• Verified Carbon Standard (VCS) - with linked Climate, Community & Biodiversity (CCB) and REDD+ standards
• Plan Vivo Standard 

Note: The CCB and REDD+ standards are always linked to VCS. Projects cannot be purchased solely under CCB or REDD+, as they serve as complementary certifications to VCS.

Our value-add: twinning

To enhance the impact of your carbon offset, Tree-Nation has implemented a unique approach called Twinning. Twinning applies specifically to VCS-certified projects and ensures that, in addition to the CO₂ offset provided through these projects, we also plant new trees as part of a reforestation initiative. This means that when you offset with a VCS project, you contribute to both the conservation of mature forests and the planting of new trees, which will sequester at least an additional tonne of CO₂ over their lifetime.
