About us

Our Manifesto

Climate action is always a work in progress

"THE MORE WE REDUCE OUR EMISSIONS AND CONTRIBUTE TO CLIMATE CONTRIBUTION PROJECTS, THE BIGGER THE IMPACT WE CAN HAVE TO TACKLE CLIMATE CHANGE."

The effort must be twofold and should combine GHG emission measurement and reduction within an organization’s value chain, while also transparently supporting removal and avoidance projects.

Climate action is a global movement and not an individual achievement.

We believe that more climate action leads to more significant environmental and social impacts and faster achievement of carbon neutrality at the global level."

Your ClimateSeed Team

According to the 2022 IPCC Report, we have 3 years to avoid a climate disaster: "Without immediate and deep emissions reductions across all sectors, limiting global warming to 1.5°C is beyond reach."

We want to accelerate organizations' climate action by providing them with our solutions and expertize.

The natural ecosystem surrounding us is precious but fragile. We are committed to providing high-quality projects, with positive social and environmental impact, in the short and long term. These climate contribution projects protect endangered species and restore their natural habitats, while maintaining and enhancing natural carbon sinks.

During the project selection process and throughout the entire value chain, we focus on positive externalities linked to the United Nations Sustainable Development Golas, such as reducing poverty and growing local economies in developing countries. ClimateSeed is particularly committed to supporting gender equality.
