Climate project + nature conservationGet to know the project

This combined project contributes to the financing of a certified climate project and additionally supports nature conservation in Italy. For every tonne of CO₂ saved through the contribution via a certified climate project, a financial contribution will go towards the reconstruction of the Regionale Campo dei Fiori in Italy. In this way, we can restore forest ecosystems that were devastated by a storm in 2020.

Currently, the reconstruction of the Regionale Campo dei Fiori is combined with a certified social impact project in India (climatepartner.com/1607). This project enables local women to purchase clean energy products such as solar lamps and water filters. Combined climate project to date: solar energy, Karnataka, Uttar Pradesh, and Maharashtra, India (climatepartner.com/1429).

Our additional commitment: a financial contribution for every tonne of CO2 reduced

With our combined project, we combine verified emission reductions through a certified climate project with an additional commitment to regional nature conservation. European ecosystems are also affected by climate change. Our regional nature conservation initiatives are therefore committed to preserving or restoring natural habitats and adapting them to climatic changes.

Possible project activities include the protection and conversion of native forests, the conservation of animal and plant biodiversity, peatland restoration, or the conversion of agricultural land. The certified climate project is registered with international standards.

The project aims to contribute to these United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Project facts

Type
Reduction

Climate projects generally fall into one of three groups: carbon reduction, carbon removal, or carbon avoidance. Carbon reduction projects reduce the amount of greenhouse gas emissions produced by a specific activity (e.g., improved cookstoves). Carbon removal projects remove carbon from the atmosphere by sequestering it in carbon sinks (e.g., reforestation). Carbon avoidance projects avoid greenhouse gas emissions entering the atmosphere (e.g., protecting forests from deforestation with REDD+ projects).

Standard
Combined Project: VERs + Regional Commitment

All climate projects are based on international standards. They set processes and requirements which carbon projects must fulfill to be recognised as a proven method of reducing carbon emissions.

Technology
Climate project + nature conservation

Climate projects demonstrably reduce, remove, or avoid greenhouse gas emissions. This is achieved with various technologies, ranging from nature-based solutions to social impact projects and renewable energies.

What’s a combined project?

With combined projects, ClimatePartner brings together funding for international, certified climate projects with additional support for nature conservation projects.
