Balance Eco Ltd (“Balance”) resolves the reputational issues associated with the traditional carbon market, such as lack of transparency and integrity of carbon projects, by cleaning up existing carbon credits and converting them into natural biodiversity-enhancing Balance Units while at the same time motivating members of the public to become more environmentally conscious. Balance offers a new form of carbon offsetting, designed to prioritise the creation and protection of natural biodiversity in current carbon credit systems. Balance enhances both biodiversity and standards planting project requirements through the planting of indigenous trees while helping companies offset their emissions. For each tonne of BALANCE®, an extra tree is planted in a non-carbon forest.
