Voluntary Markets

Driven by the global challenge of fighting climate change, corporations and governments are setting ambitious emissions reduction targets. While reducing your own emissions should always be the priority, offsets can be a way to achieve emission reductions quicker and at lower cost.

We have established strong relationships with high-quality offset project owners, carbon offset suppliers and developers around the world.

Through a global network of offices and partners, IFCHOR ClearBlue Oceans sources only high-quality offsets from projects using the most reliable offset standards and registries. We help clients build and implement carbon offsets portfolio tailored for each individual customer’s needs. We provide support and due diligence on the offsets we propose, to ensure that buyers are purchasing only high-quality offsets, thus mitigating any potential reputational risks.
