our mission

Introduction

squestr is a passion venture.

Our mission is to make a significant positive contribution to the global environment, by reducing emissions, restoring habitats and providing uplift to impoverished communities in developing countries.

We do this by helping companies and individuals in developed countries quantify and report on their environmental footprints, before taking easy and effective measures to reduce and offset emissions.

Our philanthropic environmental projects in Africa are funded by the associated sale of carbon credits.

In this section we offer a sequence of four short articles that are intended to help you understand a little bit more about the environmental context, who we are and what we do.

These articles are designed to be read in sequence, but you can skip between them using the mission link in the main menu.

If you have any questions, please do get in touch, we are more than happy to walk you through the whole process.
