Build your portfolio

We’ll help you build a multi-year portfolio of carbon projects to align with your priorities, diversify your credits, and secure supply. We’ll also centralise your purchases and work with suppliers for you to minimise your operational overhead.

Our methodology

Watershed’s team of climate scientists and carbon market experts evaluates every carbon removal project on six criteria:

Additionality

Is carbon removed from the atmosphere that would not have been removed without this purchase?

Verification

Can we be sure the project is removing as much carbon as it claims?

Permanence

How long will the removed carbon stay out of the atmosphere?

Leakage

What is the risk of displacing activities that shift emissions from the project to another site?

Catalytic nature

How meaningful is the purchase in advancing research & development?

Co-benefits

Other than the carbon removed, what is the impact of the project?

“While reductions make up the majority of our actions towards Net Zero, we’re also focused on building relationships with best-in-class removal projects to neutralize the remainder of Block's emissions. We leverage Watershed to help with due diligence and curate the very best projects across a wide spectrum of leading CDR categories.”

How Watershed vets carbon removal suppliers in our Marketplace

January 11, 2023

Meeting ambitious climate goals usually requires purchasing carbon removal—capturing and storing carbon dioxide from the Earth’s atmosphere. The Watershed Marketplace offers a rigorously vetted supply of carbon removal options.

Watershed partners with Frontier to broaden access to permanent carbon removal

Watershed customers Boom Supersonic, Canva, SKIMS, and Zendesk represent new sectors, geographies, and companies of different scales participating in Frontier for the first time.

How companies of all sizes are making carbon removal possible

The science is clear: the world needs large-scale carbon dioxide removal (CDR). In this guide we cover why private-sector CDR investments matter and how to fit them into your climate program. While reducing emissions is crucial, it isn’t enough.
