Frequently Asked Questions

What does CNaught do?

CNaught offers the simplest way to purchase high-integrity carbon credits, with our curated selection of science-backed portfolios. We help companies save time and avoid the complicated project selection process, enabling them to immediately reduce their carbon footprints and their risk of greenwashing–all at competitive prices.

CNaught also offers a carbon credit API for companies that want to programmatically offer carbon-neutral products and services to their customers.

What is the relationship between Pachama and CNaught?

Pachama and CNaught work closely to support Pachama's existing customers who are looking to continue investing in nature while diversifying their portfolio. We are aligned on and offer the same level of rigor and diligence on our carbon projects - our Head of Science even came from Pachama! 

How does CNaught ensure that projects are high-integrity?

CNaught’s internal science team conducts deep project-level diligence to ensure that every project passes our rigorous standards of additionality, quantification accuracy, and durability.

We also closely review third-party due diligence, and we ensure that every project in our portfolio is highly rated by at least one of four independent rating agencies: Calyx Global, Renoster, BeZero, and Sylvera.

In practice, this means that only about 15% of credits available in the voluntary carbon market will meet our due diligence requirements and be eligible for inclusion in our portfolios.

How does CNaught construct its portfolios?

CNaught’s portfolio approach follows Oxford's Principles for Carbon Offsetting, supported by the World Economic Forum. CNaught’s portfolios are made up of four different categories of project types, which build on a paradigm laid out in the Oxford Principles. Consistent with Oxford, we weight our current portfolios toward the highest-impact technologies currently available at scale: the best avoided emissions projects. At the same time, we allocate a meaningful portion of our portfolios toward carbon removal projects with both short and long-term storage because it is critical that carbon removal solutions scale if we are to meet our climate goals. Over time we believe the weight of the portfolio will shift toward removal and longer-term storage as removal solutions scale and global progress on emission reductions also reduces the number of avoided emission projects.
