PROJECT TYPES

REFORESTATION
Projects involving the management and growth of biologically diversified and sustainable forestry, often protected by conservation rules to ensure longevity. Forests convert CO2 to O2 naturally repairing the CO2 imbalance in the environment.

METHANE GAS CAPTURE
Projects of methane gas emissions capture from landfills used to generate electricity. These recovery programs are capable of collecting and destroying large quantities of methane that have the emission reduction equivalent of taking thousands of cars off the road

BIOMASS CONVERSION
Projects of biomass conversion use crops and plant waste and turn them into energy, resulting in sustainable fuel. This fuel is low impact on the environment because the conversion does not result in harmful greenhouse gases.
