Because we care about the future
We have calculated the greenhouse gas emissions of our eyewear and finance certified climate protection projects in the amount of the emissions. In addition to avoiding and reducing greenhouse gas emissions, this is another important step we have taken in climate protection. Certified climate protection projects demonstrably save CO2 emissions
or bind CO2 from the atmosphere and also contribute to the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) worldwide. They promote sustainable development where the projects are implemented. For example, the climate protection project we are currently supporting creates local jobs and increases the proportion of renewable energy in regional and national power grids.
* financial climate contribution means that the emissions have been calculated and climate protection projects are financed in the amount of the calculated emissions.
Diverse & effective
Renewable energy, Asia, continent-wide
The demand for renewable energy is also growing on the Asian continent. Climate protection projects generate the necessary resources to drive forward the expansion of sustainable technologies. This portfolio supports projects in several Asian countries. It is made up of the following climate protection projects certified in accordance with the Gold Standard or Verified Carbon Standard:
- Wind energy projects in India, China, Indonesia and Turkey
- Solar power projects in India and China
- Hydropower projects in Turkey and Sri Lanka
- Biogas and biomass projects in India, China and Thailand
A third of global greenhouse gas emissions are caused by burning fossil fuels such as coal and oil. These fossil fuels are not only finite, but also have a serious impact on the climate. In order to reduce CO2 emissions, mitigate the effects of climate change and meet the growing demand for energy, the promotion of renewable energy sources is essential. The best-known renewable energy sources are wind, solar and hydroelectric power. However, energy can also be generated from geothermal energy or from biogas and biomass plants that utilise animal dung or organic residues.
Climate protection projects play an important role in the global dissemination and implementation of these technologies. Project activities not only avoid CO2 emissions, but can also reduce a country's dependence on fossil fuels, secure energy supplies and create jobs for local people. The renewable energy projects in the ClimatePartner portfolio are registered with international standards.
Die Projektaktivitäten in diesem Portfolio tragen dazu bei, den Anteil erneuerbaren Energien in regionalen und nationalen Stromnetzen zu erhöhen.
The renewable energy portfolio creates jobs in India, China, Thailand, Indonesia, Turkey and Sri Lanka.
Renewable energy is generated as part of the project activities, which mostly replaces fossil fuels in the electricity mix, thereby reducing CO2 emissions and providing households and public facilities with a sustainable supply of electricity.
