What is WeCHOOOSE?

WeCHOOOSE enables any company, big or small, to act on climate change by offering sustainability as-a-service. WeCHOOOSE is a self-service platform for climate action that is easy to use, understand and engage with. CHOOOSE makes it simple to neutralize the climate impact of any company activity, transaction or interaction.

Currently, there are two different WeCHOOOSE services depending on your company needs: WeCHOOOSE (self-service) and CHOOOSE connect (for API integration). All versions of WeCHOOOSE allow for carefully selected, measurable and impactful climate action.

WeCHOOOSE makes it simple to neutralize the climate impact of any company activity, transaction or interaction.

Why does WeCHOOOSE exist?

The world must move to a low-carbon world as quickly as possible, and governments, corporations, cities, regions and individuals, must all do their part to tackle climate change. However, even in the best-case scenario, this transition will take some time. In the meantime, everyone will have a carbon footprint, regardless of how hard they try to reduce it. Until we reach a net zero-carbon world we need to do something about the unavoidable, residual carbon footprint. Paying to reduce an equivalent amount of carbon emissions through voluntary carbon offsetting is the most impactful and cost-effective way of doing this.

In 2019, less than 1% of global consumer activity was climate neutralized— and to us, that’s about 99% too little. Why is it so? We believe the answer is friction.

A study by BCG/MIT finds that whereas 90% of executives find sustainability to be important, yet only 60% of companies incorporate sustainability in their strategy, and merely 25% have sustainability incorporated in their business model.

Despite an accelerating consumer willingness to pay for climate-neutral purchases, businesses lack the tools and expertise to deliver solutions. WeCHOOOSE changes all of this. As an all-in-one climate toolkit, it delivers everything a business needs to seamlessly include climate neutralization options into any related field of its operations; employees, events, travel, historic footprint, products, shipping, digital channel, experience or loyalty program - you name it.

Our goal is to make it easy and engaging for any company to include climate action into your daily business operations or customer experience.

How do you set the price of a portfolio?

Each project has its own cost per carbon credit (equals one tonne of CO2). All portfolios consist of two or more projects and the portfolio price is a blend of the cost per carbon credit from each project in the portfolio plus a small CHOOOSE service fee. The CHOOOSE service fee will be added on either per tonne CO2 that you offset or per flight, car, person, etc. depending on what type of carbon footprint you are offsetting

Why do portfolios have different prices?

Each portfolio is composed of projects at different prices. Each project has its own price, and the blended rate of these projects comprise the portfolio price per tonne.

The project developer set the credits’ price based on:

1) value delivered beyond CO2 reduction, for instance, how many and which sustainable development goals the project contributes to, 2) the operational cost of the project ensuring long term sustainability and 3) the carbon market dynamics driven by supply and demand.
