CO2 Australia | Carbon OffsettingCO2 Australia is creating a better climate. A wholly owned subsidiary of publicly listed CO2 Group Limited, we are Australia’s market leader in the establishment and management of major commercial reforestation projects. Called ‘carbon sinks’ these forests are designed to lock-up carbon and, by doing that, lessen the impact of greenhouse gas emissions on our climate. CO2 Australia is the country’s largest provider of dedicated carbon sink plantings and manages over 22,000 hectares of plantings across New South Wales, Victoria and Western Australia. This equates to more than 33 million trees. In addition, CO2 Australia protects more than 3500 hectares of native bush. As a fully accredited provider of carbon permits, CO2 Australia has been the provider of choice for organisations seeking to manage their greenhouse gas emissions profile, including under formal emission reduction programs. Our ability to generate carbon permits at scale is unprecedented in the market place. CO2 Australia has conducted extensive research and development on the performance of the mallee eucalypts used in our carbon plantings. The species is long lived, is drought tolerant, can survive even intense fires and develops an extensive root system, allowing for a large, protected, underground carbon store. In addition to capturing and storing greenhouse gas emissions, investing in CO2 Australia’s Carbon Sequestration Program also improves biodiversity and reduces the risk of soil erosion and salinity.
