    About Us

    As Canada’s leading provider of carbon-management solutions, Offsetters helps organizations and individuals understand, reduce and offset their climate impact.

    In 2005, Dr. James Tansey saw a growing demand amongst colleagues and corporations in BC for a dependable source of high-quality offsets; Offsetters was created to serve that need. James is a respected professor at the University of British Columbia who continues to publish on a range of research topics, including social enterprise, climate change and social impacts and acceptability of new technologies.

    Based in Vancouver, we’ve grown to a team of 15 with expertise in greenhouse gas measurement, climate change science and policy, renewable energy and energy efficiency, and carbon finance. Visit our bios to learn more about our team.

    Our vision

    • We will be the partner of choice for leaders who care about climate change
    • We’ll inspire our employees to create possibilities and be adaptive to change
    • We will retire 1 million high-quality tonnes of carbon offsets by 2012

    Our mission
    We promote a shift to a low-carbon future by helping our clients to understand, reduce, and offset their greenhouse gas emissions.

    Our values
    Passion, integrity, and possibility are the core values that influence everything we do.
