How It Works

STEP 1: Pachama and Ware2Go’s analysts will work together to determine the quarterly carbon emissions in metric tonnes of all shipments across Ware2Go’s network.

STEP 2: Based on these emissions, Ware2Go will purchase the appropriate number of carbon credits on our clients’ behalf.

STEP 3: Through a diverse portfolio of projects Pachama will use the purchased carbon credits to restore vital ecosystems, prevent deforestation of old-growth forests, and transition working forests to sustainable forests.
