Ethical travel marketplace Evaneos has chosen to support a portfolio of high-integrity carbon dioxide removal (CDR) projects via Klimate.
This move forms part of Evaneos’ sustainability journey and comes after the company spent the past year refining its approach to addressing ongoing emissions, establishing what it takes responsibility for and the standards it applies.
Founded in 2009 and headquartered in Paris, Evaneos is a B Corp-certified travel marketplace, linking travellers with curated local agencies in over 160 destinations.
The company was created with a vision of revolutionizing travel so that it benefits both the travellers and the places they visit. In line with this vision, besides offering unique experiences for travellers, Evaneos’ work is also mindful of local communities and the planet.
As part of the newly announced partnership, Klimate will procure a portfolio of CDR projects which will receive support from Evaneos over the next four years. The announcement highlights that the portfolio is well-balanced, including CDR pathways such as biochar and reforestation.
“These efforts complement our Carbon30 decarbonization strategy, because carbon removal should never replace emissions reductions, it should address only those emissions that remain after meaningful efforts to reduce them,” Evaneos shared in a publication.
As an integrated platform for high-quality carbon removal strategy and action, Copenhagen-based Klimate will put together the CDR portfolio tailored to the needs of Evaneos.
Once the portfolio is in place, the organization also provides services on organizing assets, tracking processes and ensuring compliance with its Klimate platform.
