Fair Climate Fund wants to demonstrate that the carbon market can benefit those - who are the most vulnerable to the effects of climate change - in a fair and effective way. Those with the largest carbon footprint invest in carbon reduction projects with high social impact that meet the Gold Standard and/or Fairtrade Climate Standard. They strive for a fair climate: a world where those who contribute most to climate change invest in climate projects that benefit people most vulnerable to the impacts of climate change. Their goal is to work together with their partners to provide cleaner cooking solutions for half a million people, and to plant half a million trees in order to reduce a million tons of CO₂ before 2025.
