Carbon Friendly Certification

What does it mean?

Not all businesses have the information they need to do a full footprint measurement, or the means to be Zero Carbon just yet. If your carbon footprint cannot be accurately measured, or you just want to buy carbon offsets, this is the option for you.

What will you be contributing to?

Ekos partners with land owning communities, impact investors & grant funders to plant and protect indigenous forests in the Pacific Islands and in rural communities here in Aotearoa. We then connect businesses and individuals with these permanent indigenous forest carbon projects through the carbon offsetting services we provide.

The establishment and protection of these forests draws down carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere, enhances biodiversity, improves water quality, reduces soil loss through erosion, develops climate resilience and provides diversification and sustainable land use opportunities for land owners.

Through this process, businesses and individuals who are purchasing carbon credits to offset their own impacts are simultaneously funding forest conservation or forest development as well as providing sustainable diversification opportunities for landowners that differ from conventional farming or logging.
