HERITAGE REFORESTATION
IS YOUR COMPANY TRYING TO OFFSET ITS EMISSIONS?
Planting a forest is a great way to guarantee your ability to offset emissions now and well into the future at a fixed rate. Most businesses looking to reduce their carbon footprint use carbon credits as a way to achieve their emissions reduction goals. Planting and maintaining forests can generate carbon credits as the trees grow and pull carbon out of the atmosphere. By funding carbon credit projects, corporations are able to lock in a fixed price per credit.
WHAT IS A CARBON CREDIT?
a tradable certificate or permit representing one tonne of sequestered carbon from a verified carbon project
used by businesses to offset emissions
helps businesses reduce their carbon footprints
FOREST CARBON PROJECTS

CREDIT ISSUANCE The registries issue offset credits and record their use when they are sold and or retired.
