The Climate Trust is a leading non-profit organization dedicated to providing solutions to stabilize our rapidly changing climate.
Our Mission
The sole mission of The Climate Trust is to promote climate change solutions
by providing high quality greenhouse gas offset projects and advancing sound
offset policy.
“The Climate Trust is one of the largest buyers of offsets in the United States. More importantly, the Trust is the largest buyer with an environmental purpose, as opposed to corporate cost minimization.”
— Dale S. Bryk,
Senior Attorney, NRDC
To realize its vision, The Climate Trust focuses on:
Providing Greenhouse Gas Offsets
The Climate Trust provides offsets to:
Power plants
Regulators
Businesses and entities of all sizes
Individuals
Advancing Sound Offset Policy
Our practical experience with offsets has proven valuable to stakeholders around the country.
We are a key contributor to state, regional, national, and international
offset policy discussions
The Climate Trust has strong, working relationships with leading
climate policy groups
“Because The Climate Trust is a non-profit entity seeking to promote the development of high quality greenhouse gas offsets in an uncertain policy environment, its work can serve as a counter-balance to the current plethora of unregulated, one-off market transactions.”
— Diedre Shupp Matthews, Director, Massachusetts Energy Facilities Siting Board
Why We’re Successful
Our success is a result of our business oriented approach. The Climate Trust's projects are expected to offset nearly 2.6 million metric tons of carbon dioxide from $8.8 million in investments – making us one of the largest and most experienced offset buyers in the U.S. and world markets. Our
programs are customized to help you effectively meet your greenhouse gas reduction goals.
