The impact you will be making
Reducing or avoiding carbon emissions can go hand-in-hand with projects that improve people's lives. Such projects include replacing cookstoves with ones that are more fuel-efficient, and improving access to clean water.

Why fund community projects?
All the projects Ecologi supports benefit people, but with community-based carbon avoidance projects the benefits for people are perhaps the most obvious. For example, improving access to clean water may not seem like a climate solution, but it means that dirty water doesn't have to boiled to make it safer, so less fuel has to be burned, creating fewer emissions.
