NativeEnergy is an established carbon offset programme that has been around since 2000. Its quality, transparency, and rigorous standards make it a leader among carbon offset programmes. It is a Public Benefit Corporation and Certified B Corp.
The programme has carbon offset calculators for both businesses and individuals. These include travel, events, household, and freight calculators. They allow people to measure their carbon footprint and calculate the cost of investing in carbon offsets.
With NativeEnergy, users can buy offsets as a one-time purchase or as a monthly, quarterly, or annual offset. All projects are validated and verified by third-party organisations such as the Gold Standard, the Verified Carbon Standard, the
Climate, Community & Biodiversity Standards
, the American Carbon Registry, VERRA, or
Plan Vivo
.
Most projects cover reforestation and emissions reduction. They aim to positively impact communities and ecosystems while reducing or removing CO2. NativeEnergy offers clean water, nature-based, on-farm, and renewable energy projects, among others.
Some example projects include:
- Regenerative farming in the Canadian Prairies
- Improving agriculture and livelihoods in Uganda
