Offset Your Carbon Footprint
Support verified waste-to-energy projects through transparent carbon credit purchases — with clear documentation and honest impact accounting.
Enquire About Carbon CreditsWhat Is Carbon Offsetting?
Carbon offsetting allows organisations and individuals to compensate for their unavoidable emissions by funding projects that reduce or remove greenhouse gases elsewhere — providing a measurable, third-party verified environmental benefit.
Offsetting is not a licence to emit freely. It functions best as one component within a broader decarbonisation strategy: reduce first, offset what remains. Terra Digester carbon credits are linked to real waste-to-energy projects that would not have been economically viable without the carbon finance they receive.
This mechanism — known as additionality — is central to the integrity of any carbon offset programme. We apply it rigorously.
Built on Recognised Verification Frameworks
Carbon credits are only meaningful when independently verified against established international standards.
Gold Standard for the Global Goals
Developed by WWF and NGO partners, Gold Standard is widely recognised as one of the most rigorous voluntary carbon market standards. Projects must demonstrate contributions to UN Sustainable Development Goals alongside emissions reductions, ensuring broader development co-benefits alongside climate impact.
Verified Carbon Standard (Verra)
The Verified Carbon Standard programme is the world's most widely used voluntary carbon standard. Verra-verified projects undergo rigorous methodology review and third-party auditing to ensure emissions reductions are real, measurable, permanent, and additional to what would have occurred without carbon finance.
Four Principles of Carbon Integrity
Additionality
Emission reductions must be additional — they would not have occurred without carbon market finance supporting the project.
Permanence
Emission reductions must persist over time. For waste-to-energy projects, ongoing operation sustains the permanence of avoided emissions.
Measurability
Emission reductions must be quantifiable using established, reproducible methodologies reviewed by accredited third parties.
Third-Party Verification
Independent accredited auditors must review and verify all claimed emission reductions before credits are issued.
How Purchasing Works
A straightforward four-step process from footprint assessment to verified documentation.
Calculate — Estimate Your Carbon Footprint
The process begins with an honest assessment of your organisation's or event's carbon footprint. This may draw on existing sustainability reports, operational data, or a guided assessment. Our team can assist in identifying the appropriate scope and methodology for your context.
Select — Choose from Available Project-Linked Credits
Terra Digester carbon credits are linked to specific waste-to-energy projects — biogas systems that convert organic waste streams into clean energy while preventing direct methane emissions. You select credits based on the volume required and are provided with project-specific documentation for each credit purchased.
Purchase — Secure, Transparent Transaction
Credits are purchased at a published rate per tonne of CO₂ equivalent. The transaction is documented, traceable, and aligned with the registry requirements of the applicable verification standard. No credit is sold more than once — each transaction is recorded in the applicable carbon registry.
Certificate — Receive Verification Documentation
Upon completion of purchase, you receive full verification documentation including: the serial number of retired credits, the linked project description, the applicable verification standard, the retirement date, and the verified emission reduction volume. This documentation may be used in sustainability reporting.
Our Integrity Commitment
We do not overstate offset impact. Every credit is linked to a specific, verifiable project. Carbon offsetting is one tool within a broader commitment to emissions reduction — not a substitute for it. We will not sell credits that are not independently verified, and we publish project information transparently so buyers can conduct their own due diligence.
