How it works
Stop Pollution Before It Happens
Your contribution allows Climate Vault to purchase carbon pollution permits from regulated markets and lock them away in our vault. Every permit vaulted is one less CO2 ton produced, so you know exactly how much of an impact your support accomplishes, and so does the planet.
Climate Vault Approach
Verifiable
With contributions, we use regulated offset markets to achieve verifiable carbon reductions.
Quantifiable
Each permit purchased by Climate Vault prevents one metric ton of CO2 pollution, no complex calculations required.
Affordable
The Climate Vault approach offers effective, verifiable reductions.
Innovative
Go beyond carbon offsets and help support carbon removal technologies.
Why it matters
Accelerate the Journey to Carbon Zero
In addition to vaulting carbon pollution permits, the Climate Vault approach supports the development of competitive carbon removal technologies of the future. By supporting cutting-edge carbon removal technologies, we will help create incentives to drive innovation.
