FairClimateFund
Mission
To contribute to the reduction of global CO2 emissions and enable households in the South to earn extra income by investing in clean cooking alternatives at a household level. The carbon financing mechanism allows these households to generate carbon credits which we in turn buy at a fair price and offer to parties in North who want to compensate their surplus CO2 emissions.
