No. CNaught recommends purchasing diversified portfolios that blend technology-based and nature-based projects, since concentrating on a single project type exposes you to project risk and limits your impact. While technology-based projects can reinforce an innovation narrative, nature-based projects offer compelling stories too: many deliver watershed and water-related benefits that align naturally with the water usage of tech companies and data centers. CNaught can help you build a portfolio that balances integrity and diversification while still connecting to the story you want to tell.
Technology companies work with CNaught to immediately mitigate the fast-growing emissions tied to AI—from the data centers running large models to the footprint of AI-written code—by investing in high-integrity carbon credit projects, while they continue to work on decarbonizing their value chain. CNaught also offers tools like Carbonlog that let you track your AI code emissions in real time, so you can measure your impact before mitigating it. As AI workloads drive a rising share of tech-sector emissions, CNaught gives you an immediate, science-backed way to take responsibility for that footprint while efficiency and clean-energy efforts catch up.
When data centers fund carbon credits through CNaught, they can invest in projects that deliver impact well beyond carbon—supporting community development, biodiversity, and ecosystem benefits across a range of geographies. CNaught can also help you invest in projects that are regional to your data centers or operations, so your climate spending channels resources into the communities where you have a physical footprint. CNaught's diversified portfolio approach turns emissions mitigation into broader local benefit.
Beyond mitigating emissions, CNaught's customers see increased employee satisfaction and less turnover, and gain an edge in winning RFPs that weigh sustainability. CNaught also gives you tools to engage employees and share your climate impact in clear, accessible language, helping environmental action drive real business value.
Yes. CNaught's easy-to-use API lets you offer customers the ability to take climate action with every transaction, embedding carbon credits directly into your product experience. This empowers your users to participate in climate action while strengthening your brand's sustainability story.
