Climate and nature action for business
From carbon footprint to funded project
We measure organisational, supply-chain and product emissions, help businesses choose and fund carbon and biodiversity projects, and provide the certificates and reporting that sit behind the work.

What C Level does
Carbon measurement, project funding and the story behind the work
Measure carbon
Footprint your organisation, supply chain or products against the GHG Protocol, or use C Tech calculations inside your own systems.
Fund carbon and nature projects
Choose community-led carbon and biodiversity projects with the evidence, certificates and reporting the decision requires.
Bring the project into your organisation
Use project updates, photography, film and written stories to show colleagues, customers and partners what is happening on the ground.

“We trust C Level because they work closely with the people on the ground. It makes our climate strategy feel real as we share stories and impact across the business.”

Why C Level
We have worked with many of these projects for years
Before we recommend a carbon project, we separate removals from avoided emissions, check what has actually been verified, and review the methodology, monitoring, how permanence is managed and the registry record. Many of our project relationships go back years, so we also know the organisations and people behind the documents.
Our carbon projects are certified under the Plan Vivo Standard. Plan Vivo requires at least 60% of certificate revenue to reach the communities doing the work.
Getting started
Start with what you need now
You need a business carbon footprint
We calculate organisational, supply-chain and product footprints against the GHG Protocol across Scopes 1, 2 and 3. Talk to us about carbon footprinting. If you only need a first estimate, use the free business carbon footprint calculator.
You are ready to fund a project
Explore community-led carbon projects and our emerging portfolio of biodiversity projects. We can help with project selection, funding, certificates and reporting.
You need emissions calculations at scale
C Tech puts emissions calculations into booking systems, customer journeys and reporting tools through our APIs. Explore our calculator APIs.
FAQ
Organisations of most sizes, from single-site businesses to listed companies including Springer Nature, Zurich, Euronews and Numatic. What our clients have in common is not scale. It is that they want to be able to explain what they funded and why, to a customer, an investor or a procurement team who is not easily impressed.
We sell verified carbon credits from community-led nature projects, but we do not describe them as cancelling out a company’s emissions. The first job is to measure and reduce those emissions. Carbon credits can then fund additional climate and nature action beyond the business itself.
Our projects are certified under the Plan Vivo Standard, and we help clients understand exactly what each credit represents, what has been verified and what they can credibly say about their support.
Measurement is charged at a flat-rate minimum fee, which depends on the size and complexity of the organisation. Project funding depends on the project and the volume, and we confirm it before you commit to anything. We will give you a straight answer in the first conversation rather than a proposal three weeks later.
A twenty-minute call. We will ask what you already measure, what you have committed to publicly, and when you next have to report. That is usually enough for us to tell you whether we can help and what the first step should be.
Our regeneration pages explain the three kinds of project we work with, the values behind them, and how carbon removals differ from avoided emissions. Trust and transparency covers what we check before we put a project in front of you.
Let’s talk
This work is for organisations ready to go beyond offsets and invest in true regeneration. If that sounds like you, we’d be happy to guide you through the options.
