FOUR CORNERS CLIMATE FUND
Helping to Power the Planet through Climate Change Mitigation
WHAT WE DO
At 4CORE, we believe in practical solutions to combat climate change. Our Four Corners Climate Fund program is designed to help individuals, businesses, and organizations reduce their carbon footprint by investing in local projects that directly impact our environment.
What is Carbon Offsetting?
Carbon offsetting involves compensating for the carbon dioxide emissions produced by your activities by supporting projects that reduce or capture an equivalent amount of CO2. The energy we use at home, in our cars, and from air travel generates greenhouse gases contributing to climate change. By purchasing carbon offsets, you can invest in regional clean energy projects that reduce emissions, effectively mitigating your own. For every ton of CO2 you emit, you can fund renewable energy or efficiency projects that reduce an equivalent amount of CO2 elsewhere.
Through our Carbon Offset Program, we support a variety of impactful projects in the Four Corners region:
-
Renewable Energy Installations
We invest in solar and wind energy projects that replace fossil fuel energy sources, reducing overall greenhouse gas emissions.
-
Reforestation and Forest Management
Our projects include planting trees and managing forests to absorb CO2 from the atmosphere, helping to restore natural ecosystems.
-
Energy Efficiency Initiatives
We fund energy efficiency upgrades for homes and businesses in our community, reducing energy consumption and lowering carbon emissions, with an emphasis on low-income households.
