Our Vision

Almost three years ago, two friends realized they shared a mutual passion for sustainable living—and a mutual desire to act on it.
In the past, both of us had turned to carbon offset services to mitigate the impact of our lifestyles on the environment, but we experienced the same problem: the current offsetting services just weren’t very user friendly. They were onerous, time-consuming, and we felt they were an obstacle in bringing new people to a carbon neutral life.
nick_jeff_kodachromed.jpg Determined to do something, we decided to create an offset service that would be easy to use and, through a portfolio of high-quality carbon offset projects, would yield the greatest benefit from our members' contribution to the planet's health. We knew that many care deeply about the environment--but are so pressed for time. So we made the offset process efficient and enjoyable enough for even the busy executive or on-the-go entrepreneur.
We equipped Belgrave Trust with a calculator that can handle a huge number of variables, and allows for serious fine tuning, yet can help you get from start to membership in just a few short steps.
After careful research, we compiled a portfolio of carbon offsets drawn from the most stringently verified sources. We worked to ensure projects were not just sustainable, but innovative, and provided surrounding communities with benefits such as job creation and education wherever possible.
We started with a dream of creating a service that could spur creation of clean technology, help reverse course and reduce climate change, and create a healthier planet.
We hope you'll join us.
