You can purchase Sterling Climate™ and 
Sterling Wind™ and make the shift to carbon neutrality.

These carbon offsets are the answer when your greenhouse gas emission reduction targets can’t be met with energy efficiency and renewable energy alone. These verified emission reductions (VERs) can directly offset the remainder of your impact, taking you or your company to complete carbon neutrality.

Each offset represents one metric ton of reduced emissions of carbon dioxide equivalents. This means that every metric ton purchase achieves a metric ton reduction of various gases that contribute to greenhouse gas buildup. Beyond carbon dioxide, these gases include methane and nitrous oxide.
Sterling Planet offers a high-quality VERs portfolio from 10% international and 90% U.S. sources that include sustainable land management, methane capture and destruction, energy efficiency and renewable energy. Sterling Planet’s VERs meet stringent qualifications for carbon offset integrity:

Real: Quantified GHG reductions represent actual emission reductions that have occurred. Offsets come from a monitored emission reduction at a specific site, such as a technology upgrade that results in measurable emission reductions.

Additional: GHG reductions go beyond what would have happened anyway or in a business-as-usual scenario.

Permanent: GHG reductions are permanent and can be backed by guarantees. Assets sold once are retired forever, preventing double counting.

Verifiable: GHG reductions are from projects with readily and accurately quantified, monitored and verified performance. Emission reductions are precisely measured, tracked and recorded. Independent third parties verify transactions using established procedures, with all necessary attestations and related documentation.

You can choose Sterling Wind™. It's our Green-e Energy certified blend of wind energy from new generating projects located nationwide. For pennies a day, you can start making a difference right away:

   ·  Counteracting carbon dioxide emissions from conventional electricity use
   ·  Boosting energy security, independence and sustainability
   ·  Creating jobs and supporting domestic economies

Sterling Wind™ is a renewable energy certificate (REC) product. RECs represent all the environmental, economic and energy security benefits of renewable energy production. Sterling Planet was the first with a nationally available REC choice in 2001, and today the company is a clear leader in total REC kilowatt hour sales. The company’s REC sales have already averted more than 25 billion pounds of carbon dioxide emissions from regular power plants. See our RECs fact sheet.

In addition to buying RECs to neutralize your electricity use, you can also buy Sterling Planet's direct carbon offsets for your driving, flying, and other energy use impacts.
