Transparency and accountability are core values at HomeBiogas, certified as a B-Corporation! We understand the importance of verification. Here’s how you can confirm our Gold Standard certification: Visit the Gold Standard marketplace:
Our Gold Standard verification ensures our carbon offset projects meet the highest environmental and social impact standards.
Our installed biodigesters capture methane emissions that would normally be released from decomposing animal manure and convert it into clean cooking biogas. This replaces the use of firewood for cooking, thereby avoiding CO2 emissions and preventing deforestation. HomeBiogas digesters generate verified carbon credits authorized by Gold Standard, the leading international carbon certificate authority. These credits represent the removal of methane emissions and the avoidance of CO2 emissions.
The Gold Standard is a leading certification body for carbon offset projects. They conduct a rigorous and independent assessment process to ensure projects meet strict social and environmental criteria. Gold Standard verification guarantees that HomeBiogas projects deliver real, measurable, and additional emission reductions. This independent verification provides you with confidence that your carbon credit purchase has a genuine climate impact.
When you buy carbon credits from HomeBiogas, you’re directly supporting the construction of biogas digesters for families and small dairy farms in Kenya. This contributes to several positive outcomes:
* Reduces greenhouse gas emissions and combats climate change.
* Improves air quality and health for families using biogas for cooking.
* Contributes to reforestation efforts in some projects.
* Empowers communities by creating a cleaner and more sustainable living environment.
HomeBiogas Kenya projects distribute biogas digesters to households. This not only reduces greenhouse gas emissions but also provides families with clean cooking fuel, and reduces reliance on firewood, which can be harmful to health and contribute to deforestation. Additionally, the digester effluent, a nutrient-rich byproduct, can be used as fertilizer, improving soil quality and crop yields.
Each carbon credit represents a verified, measurable emission reduction. To ensure transparency and avoid double-counting, we issue a unique digital certificate for each amount of credit purchased. This certificate verifies your ownership and the specific impact of your contribution.
Curious about your own environmental impact? The first step towards reducing your footprint is understanding it! A great resource to calculate your ecological footprint is the Global Footprint Network (GFN) Footprint Calculator. This free, online tool (Global Footprint Network Footprint Calculator) allows you to enter information about your lifestyle choices, such as diet, housing, and transportation. Based on your answers, the GFN calculator estimates how many Earths would be required to sustain your lifestyle if everyone on Earth lived like you.
Each carbon credit you purchase is unique and represents a one-time reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. When you purchase carbon credit from HomeBiogas, you will receive a personalized signed digital certificate. This certificate will specify the type of carbon reduction you have chosen whether it is for offsetting your travel emissions, or electrical usage such as at home or office. You are now joining a community of change makers and will receive periodic updates about the positive impact happening in Kenya, thanks to your contribution.
