Support the preservation of regional forests

Our methodology requires forest owners to commit to reducing a certain amount of CO₂ by storing wood biomass in the forest for a period of 30 years, while managing the forest sustainably. By committing to reinvest the proceeds in the forest, the climate protection project ensures the continued existence of the intact forest ecosystem. Our carbon offset project has been audited and certified by TÜV according to the ISO 14064-2:2019 methodology, which is a professional and independent confirmation of our work.

To counter climate change, we must avoid and reduce emissions as a matter of principle. If this is not possible, emissions should be offset with the help of CO₂ credits. A CO₂ credit corresponds to one metric ton equivalent of carbon dioxide (tCO₂e) achieved by avoiding emissions or absorbing CO₂. Companies and individuals can purchase CO₂ credits to offset their own emissions. The use of CO₂ credits is not a substitute for emission reduction measures, such as using renewable energy sources or improving energy efficiency.

Heat, storms and insect invasions are consequences of climate change and threaten the future of the native forest. To counteract climate change, we must avoid, reduce and compensate for emissions. Investing in CO₂ credits issued through a climate protection project with Tree.ly supports climate protection projects in the regional forest. The purchase of the credits maintains or builds up the forest's CO₂ reservoir, as well as enabling the regional forestry industry to transform the forest in a climate-friendly way and continue to manage it sustainably.
