Why Renoster:

Renoster is a carbon credit ratings agency focused on bringing deep transparency to the nature-based Voluntary Carbon Markets.

We see a problem: Many nature-based carbon projects today are very low quality. Major news outlets and research papers have shown that many carbon offsets aren’t genuinely offsetting anything. Forest carbon projects regularly overstate their risk, understate their deforestation, and otherwise manipulate their numbers. This means that millions of tonnes of carbon have gone into the atmosphere and not really been dealt with. Money is not being properly used to genuinely restore and conserve natural ecosystems, and one of humanity’s best tools for fighting climate change is being hampered.

Our solution is simple: sunlight is the best disinfectant. We’re a deeply mission-driven company with a no-nonsense, tell-all attitude towards carbon offsets. Our goal is to describe which projects are doing things well and which aren’t; and then make all of our work public so that the world can benefit by knowing which carbon credits to support. We want to clean up the carbon industry through deep transparency; because the only way that humanity is going to make a dent in climate change is if nature is given a chance, and if people can trust in their carbon offsets.
