Carbon Friendly™ finances, supports and maintains global afforestation and reforestation projects. Afforestation/reforestation is simply the creation of new forests. Trees sequestor carbon dioxide (the removal of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere) and store it in the wood and in the soil. Like a sponge is to water, a tree is to carbon dioxide. Forests actually remove exisiting carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, helping to clean up the exisiting global warming mess.
In addition to sequestering carbon, trees provide us with the clean air that we breathe. The leaves of trees act as a natural filter, absorbing other air pollutants such as carbon monoxide and sulfur dioxide. They also act a natural air conditioner, moderating our climate. Trees conserve water, protecting us from storm runoff and the possibility of flooding. Trees also harbor wildlife, attracting birds and other woodland animals.
Carbon Friendly™ ensures that all of its' forestation projects are verified to meet the highest level of industry standards. Our methodologies, calculations and processes have been validated by Kashue, Poland, the “National Administration of the Emission Trading Scheme” and verified by TÜV Rheinland to the ISO 14064-2 standard.
