SERVICES - HOW WE DO IT

The Climate Action Reserve is the most trusted, efficient, and experienced carbon credit registry for global carbon markets. A pioneer in carbon accounting, the Reserve promotes and fosters the reduction of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions through credible market-based policies and solutions. As a high-quality carbon credit registry for voluntary carbon markets, it establishes rigorous standards involving multi-sector stakeholder workgroup development and local engagement and issues carbon credits in a transparent and publicly available system. The organization also supports compliance carbon markets in California, Washington and internationally. The Reserve carbon credits program demonstrates that high-quality carbon credits foster reductions in GHG pollution that are real, additional, verifiable, enforceable, and permanent. Carbon credit projects registered with the Reserve support environmental and community co-benefits, and often reduce local air pollution, restore habitat and ecosystems, spur growth in new green technologies, and allow emission reduction goals to be met at lower cost. The Reserve began as the California Climate Action Registry, which was created by the State of California in 2001 to address climate change through voluntary calculation and public reporting of emissions. The California Registry helped over 415 leading California-based corporations, organizations, government agencies and municipalities to voluntarily calculate and publicly report their GHG emissions. Its established expertise in emissions accounting translated into expertise in emissions reductions accounting for the North American carbon market. The Reserve is an environmental nonprofit organization headquartered in Los Angeles, California with staff members located around the world. The Reserve is an equal opportunity provider.
