If your business has purchased credible offsets or other carbon removal services elsewhere, you can also turn these into Carbon Points rewards.

Our reduction projects
GoZero focuses on promoting emissions reductions rather than the emit, measure and offset approach used by the majority of other systems. There is global scientific consensus that offsets cannot solve climate change and should only be a small part of the effort to get to Net Zero by 2050. Many types of offsets have faced serious criticism recently, due to their inability to deliver the promised emissions removals, or due to violations of the human rights of indigenous and local populations where such projects take place.
To generate Carbon Points that can be used to top up reward campaigns and member accounts, GoZero exclusively uses high-integrity, Gold Standard carbon credits from projects that reduce emissions, such as those from cook stove projects. These deliver emissions reductions as well as certified co-benefits, such as improved health and livelihoods, under the UN's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Improved Cook Stove Project, Uganda
Under this Gold Standard-certified project, improved cook stoves (ICS) have been provided to families in three districts in Uganda. Cook stove projects produce amongst the most credible types of carbon credits.
These cookstoves replace traditional cooking methods, increasing efficiency and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. They also improve family members' health and reduce the need for them to collect firewood.
This project has certified SDG impacts, under SDGs 7 (Affordable and Clean Energy), 8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth) and 13 (Climate Action).
