1087 – Climate project + ocean protection 1 t CO2 + 10 kg plastic, Worldwide
A certified climate project combined with additional commitment
This combined project contributes to the financing of a certified climate project and additionally supports international ocean protection. For every tonne of CO2 saved through the contribution via a certified climate project, 10 kg of plastic is collected in coastal regions. This intercepts plastic before it enters the sea and protects sensitive marine ecosystems.
Currently, ocean protection is combined with a certified cookstove project in India (climatepartner.com/1499). By using more efficient cookstoves, less firewood is needed, thus minimising deforestation. Combined climate projects to date: Forest protection, Lábrea, Brazil (climatepartner.com/1475), solar energy, UP, Karnataka and Maharashtra, India (climatepartner.com/1429), solar energy, Jaloya, India (climatepartner.com/1390), wind energy, Luzon, Philippines (climatepartner.com/1091) and wind energy, Vader Piet, Aruba (climatepartner.com/1040).
