The Katingan Mentaya carbon offset project is using revolutionary technology to improve fire prevention detection efforts. In Indonesia's peat swamps, small fires can quickly spread across the landscape. The project helps prevent these fires by training new fire crews and purchasing Ororatech, the most advanced fire-sensing tool on the market. Project managers are now able to gauge fire danger in real-time, detect tiny hot-spot fires before they spread, and predict where future fires may start. This new technology, combined with more firefighters, improves project officials' ability to protect the people, plants, and animals that call Katingan Mentaya's unique landscape home.

In destinations that deal with overtourism, tourists outnumber residents. Locals often feel that tourists' needs come before theirs, leading to negative sentiments. Simple tasks like walking or driving to the grocery store become challenging as tourists crowd roads, sidewalks, and public transportation. In addition, an influx of tourists may drive up living costs, effectively pricing out locals.

A new study on surf ecosystems found that our favorite surf spots are critical to reducing climate change. They store 88 million tons of carbon thanks to seagrasses, marshes, mangroves, and coastal forests nearby. Surf spots around the world are threatened by coastal development, with only 3% of surf ecosystems currently protected by law. Read the link below to learn more. Carbon offset projects like the ones in our Climate Impact Portfolio help prevent the destruction of these ecosystems so they can remain effective carbon sinks. Help fight climate change and preserve our planet’s coastal ecosystems when you purchase carbon offsets from our portfolio today.
