Why get involved in GCI's carbon offset projects?
Become a leader in social responsibility
By contributing to the SDGs with our projects, you demonstrate your willingness to act for the climate and share your positive environmental actions in a transparent way with your stakeholders and your internal team. This will improve your company's image and brand positioning.
Be a promoter of climate initiatives
Investing in the Net Zero Carbon trajectory helps attract partners committed to sustainable development. Like-minded companies are often willing to work and invest together. Increased environmental regulation also encourages companies to plan for future environmental regulations.
Access a range of projects registered under the main international standards (VERRA, Gold Standard, CDM), as well as with the Label Bas Carbone.
GCI offers projects that comply with certification standards, but also human-centred projects that address factors such as job creation, support to local communities, preservation and development of natural areas designated as at risk and other local socio-economic factors that will show an effect.
Once you have made your carbon contribution, you will receive your certificate of acquisition of VCS, Gold Standard or Label bas carbone certified carbon credits.
