Carbon Offset (tonnes): 
Additional Restoration (ha): Offset
Climate Positive sources only high-quality carbon offsets from accredited emissions reduction projects which also generate renewable energy.
Full project details can be accessed through our offset project map. Projects which we have invested in to date include landfill gas renewable energy projects in Western Australia and Tasmania and a wind power project in Victoria.
The carbon offset projects Climate Positive invests in are accredited under the Australian Government Greenhouse Friendly or Mandatory Renewable Energy Target programs. For organisations with specific needs, Climate Positive also sources international offsets accredited under the Gold Standard or the Voluntary Carbon Standard.
To achieve accreditation, all projects must achieve greenhouse abatement or generate renewable energy. It's essential that carbon offsets are credible and meet the following criteria:
- Permanent emission reductions
- Real-time emission savings
- Measurable and certain outcomes
- Additional, beyond business as usual
- Verified by third parties
Climate Positive also applies our internal selection criteria to ensure accredited offsets also meet our ecological and social standards.
Our Going Positive section outlines the additional work Climate Positive is doing to deal with historical carbon debt and restore bio-diverse forests and ecosystems. For every one tonne offset through Climate Positive, we restore 4m2 of bio-diverse forest, in addition to the full carbon offset with renewable energy and emission reduction projects.
Individuals can make a tax-deductible donation to offset their emissions. Businesses should see our Business Solutions section for the range of options for achieving carbon neutrality.
