Additional Donation to Naturefund e.V.
Customers, who compensate their CO2 emissions with these carbon credits, grant an additional donation to the NGO Verein Naturefund e.V. with its seat in Wiesbaden, Germany. The value of the donation is 3,25 Euro per compensated ton of CO2 emissions. Naturefund uses the donation for the purchase of land to preserve the habitat of animals and plants. Naturefund purchases the land and arranges for its afforestation or reforestation.
Currently, the donations are used for the project "Niedermoor" in Bavaria. Together with LA'BIO! and in cooperation with the "Donaumoos-Zweckverband", Naturefund preserves and renaturates 57.033 m² of a former low moor along the river Danube. For details, please see the documentation below.
