The Climate Trust’s mission is to provide expertise, financing, and inspiration to accelerate innovative and effective climate solutions that endure.

This mission provides special insight for development of both the offset market and climate policy. We act as a laboratory, learning what works and what doesn't work in the development of offset projects. We then apply those valuable market lessons to inform the development of climate policy that ensures the efficacy and integrity of the offset markets and the environment.

We fulfill our mission by providing the following:

• Climate policy - Providing education and expert advice to policymakers on incorporation of offsets in climate laws and regulations
• Compliance offset work - Selecting and contracting offset projects that comply with regulation
• Voluntary offset work - Designing customized voluntary offset programs and services
• Consulting - Assessing offset projects and advising on climate policy
