Avoiding, reducing and offsetting carbon emissions

Klima-Kollekte empowers you to take climate-friendly actions, helping to preserve our environment. It is our collective responsibility to do everything within our means to ensure that our world becomes a better place to live in.

Klima-Kollekte is here to help you calculate your emissions upon request and offer guidance on reduction strategies. Should there be any emissions that you cannot reduce further, you have the option to offset them through our projects in renewable energy and energy efficiency.

These projects are specifically designed to benefit local communities in global south countries. They not only contribute to poverty reduction by empowering women, improving health conditions, and creating new opportunities, but they also reduce CO₂ emissions, thereby safeguarding the climate. It is important to note that our climate projects are certified with the prestigious Gold Standard for the Global Goals, ensuring their credibility and effectiveness.

Your commitment to climate protection is utilized with utmost transparency and trustworthiness. This is a hallmark of the partner organizations collaborating with Klima-Kollekte.
