For a company to address their emissions of carbon dioxide, purchasing carbon credits remains a powerful tool to achieve this. At the same time, they are contributing to climate change mitigation and sustainable development.
When buying a carbon credit generated by Simoshi’s supported schools in Uganda, a company (or an individual) is supporting the on-going activities that also contribute to the wellbeing of the school staff and students.
This is why Simoshi’s Project Activity registered with the Gold Standard is verified against 9 Sustainable Development Golas (SDGs). All of these have unique indicators that are continuously monitored, quantified, reported and verified by the externally approved auditing process.
The carbon credit price that is advertised at the Gold Standard Marketplace clearly reflects the environmental and societal benefits achieved by the project implementation, and remain to be a crucial tool to drive emission reductions in line with 1.5 degrees Celsius to prevent the worst impact of climate change.
