About us
The founders of Greatest Planet™ realised as early as the late 1960s that the actions of mankind were resulting in an increase of temperatures on earth. Their vision soon became focused on Greatest Planet, "a phrase intended to highlight both the privileges of living on this wonderful planet and the responsibilities of having a raised consciousness about climate change."
Since 1969, with the ongoing support of concerned individuals, Greatest Planet funds vital research in an effort to slow and ultimately reverse the phenomenon of global warming. Our support of this climate research will undoubtedly lead us to a better understanding how we can change our attitudes towards our personal contribution to global warming and thus insure a healthy future for ourselves and our descendants.
Today, Greatest Planet provides a completely ethical and transparent means of carbon offset for businesses and individuals alike. We have full control of all our offset projects and can directly measure the CO2 reductions achieved. Carbon Offsetting works by investing funds to absorb or prevent the emission of a CO2 equivalent to your unavoidable CO2 emissions.
We are non-profit
and your offset purchases are 100% tax deductible contributions in the US.
Greatest Planet is not aligned to any political party. Find out more about what we do, why you should offset, and find answers to some of our most frequently asked questions.
