Surprise your loved ones with a gift climate subscription and let them start the new year living climate neutral. For your chosen duration, we will offset the gift recipient’s CO2 emissions through effective climate protection measures in Europe. We’ll plant trees in Germany and buy away emission rights from the industry in the EU.
For your gift, you’ll do a one-time donation. The subscription ends automatically.
For a one-time donation of €22, your gift offsets 0.3 tonnes of CO2 emissions through:

Canceling emission right equals shutting down a coal-fired power plant for Canceling emission rights equals shutting down a coal-fired power plant for  hours. 0 minutes.  seconds.
We buy European emission allowances (EUAs) from the European Union’s capped carbon trading scheme. Then we cancel them, which means the rights are destroyed forever! This way, we force the big CO2 emitters like coal-fired power plants in the EU to emit less CO2. Because European emission allowances determine how much carbon emissions can be emitted in the EU. This is the most effective way to avoid emissions that we know of.

0 Trees planted in Europe
Our trees grow in new, protected forests in Germany.
We plant mixed forests together with our partner, the German Forest Protection Association. Mixed forests have many advantages. They are much more climate-resistant, offer protection against drought, wind and disease, and promote biodiversity. Planting in Germany has the added advantage that CO2 is offset where it is emitted—so offsets are credited where they are needed.
