(EMAILWIRE.COM, September 26, 2009 ) Boca Raton, FL --- ClearSky believes carbon offsets are a powerful way for individuals, businesses, community organizations, and governments to act immediately to counter global climate change. Critics have rightly pointed out that carbon offsets are not a magic bullet that will solve the global warming problem. Offsets offer the global community a way to begin mitigating climate impacts immediately, however, and this strategy can be effective when coupled with sincere effort to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
As project developers and providers of carbon credits, ClearSky pursues only high-quality projects that deliver multiple benefits (including biodiversity conservation, income generation for disadvantaged populations, or protection of soils and water). Our projects are certified under demanding standards to ensure credibility, and our business practices are open and transparent. Our consulting services are a rigorous effort to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, with genuine carbon offsets used to mitigate the remaining climate footprint.

An example of the ClearSky philosophy in action can be seen in our tropical forestry projects. Tropical forests present a clear means to sequester atmospheric CO2 while providing valuable benefits to local communities and native ecosystems. Sustainably managed or protected forests can offer meaningful employment, economic development and communal resource access, while also mitigating climate change, halting illegal or shortsighted logging, stabilizing soil, providing vital biodiversity habitat and migration corridors for native plant and animal species, and protecting local hydrology and downstream ecosystems. Again, some critics have arguments against forestry carbon sequestration projects. These critiques have helped in creating rigorous guidelines and standards for implementing forestry carbon sequestration projects, but they don’t cancel the multiple benefits of a well-planned forest project, like those implemented by ClearSky.
