GOLD STANDARD
80% GRANT FUND
Join the mission to create a low carbon economy with a Carbon Neutral Gold Standard grant from One Carbon World
Carbon Neutral Gold Standard is particularly useful for organisations and events that are aware of their carbon footprint or indeed ones that have very precise carbon reduction goals. Carbon Neutral Gold Standard is definitive; our experts support your in house team to measure and define the carbon output for your chosen project. Once we have a calculated, reliable and verified final figure for your carbon footprint we provide a balance to your carbon footprint using grant funding and Verified Carbon Credits.
Large organsiations may wish to engage with the fund via both standards, using Launchpad to scope and understand their carbon footprint in multiple locations or at specific events. Launchpad to Carbon Neutral in this context is an effective and simple approach to measurement in a fully supported context, real world empirical knowledge of your actual carbon footprint, on one or multiple sites or events globally. Once these figures are clear then the process of attaining the Carbon Neutral Gold Standard is much more direct.
Additionally, all organisations will be able to use the UN Climate Neutral Now logo on participation in this initiative in their websites, informational documents (e.g.annual reports, sustainability reports, company profiles) and promotional materials (flyers, brochures, and similar).
Climate Neutral Now is an initiative launched by the UN Climate Change in 2015, aiming at encouraging and supporting all levels of society to take climate action to achieve a climate neutral world by mid-century, as enshrined in the Paris Agreement adopted the same year.
