Achieving carbon neutrality: a strategic commitment for 2050 thanks to three key levers

Calculate and reduce

Reduce the direct emissions generated by the company at every stage of its value chain. GCI helps companies measure their carbon footprint and identify the actions needed to reduce it.

Decarbonizing purchasing

Emissions avoided by the company through its products and services, by re-evaluating the design of its offerings. Calculating the carbon footprint of each product or service makes it possible to quantify this impact and identify levers for reduction.

Compensate - contribute

Residual emissions that the company cannot reduce, require sequestration actions or the financing of projects to offset them. This lever should be used as a last resort, once all reduction possibilities have been exhausted.

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.
