What Does ECO Carbon Offsets Do?
ECO has three main activities:
Management Consultants: ECO Provides management consulting advice to
businesses. We measure the size of their carbon footprint and assist in reducing
the CO2 emissions of organisations.
Carbon Farming Advice to Landowners: ECO works with landowners to enable
landowners plant Kyoto compliant native vegetation. ECO also attends to the
legal and compliance requirements to enable the plantation to be registered as a
separate property right on the Certificate of Title with the Land Titles Office.
Broker: ECO is a Broker between Landowner and Emitter. “The landowner grows
trees-we sell carbon offsets”
Landowner Focused Tasks:
Consulting: Assisting Landowners determine if their land is suitable for growing native
vegetation for Carbon.
110 Years: To determine whether these Landowners are prepared to sign and register
a Forest Property Agreement which secures the land for 110 years and protects the
trees for at least this period so that a registered Carbon Offset can be offered to the
Carbon emission market.
Measurement: Measuring the likely Carbon sequestration tonnage from the site,
Plantings: Ensuring the plantings are Kyoto compliant,
Biodiversity: Planting biodiverse native vegetation which, in addition to meeting Kyoto
compliance requirements, also achieves an outcome which results in the provision of
1/3
2. native habitat corridors.
Verification: Ongoing Carbon verification on a 3 yearly basis.
Audit & Asset Register: Maintenance of an asset register to ensure that no tree is sold
twice and to meet independent audit requirements forming part of an Emission Trading
Scheme.
Accreditation: Complying with ongoing accreditation requirements.
Legals: Establishing Forest Property Agreement with Landowner and registering it with
Land Titles Office,
Emitter Focused Tasks
Carbon Footprint Measurement: Measuring the quantum of Greenhouse Gasses
emissions by businesses and assisting organisations reduce their emissions.
Matching Emitters: Matching Carbon buyers (emitters of CO2e) who want to purchase
tree-based offsets with carbon farmers who have grown suitable biosequestered offsets.
Pricing: Negotiating pricing with emitters along with other matters.
Sales: Establishing sales and legal contracts with the buyers.
Carbon Asset Register: Establishing and maintaining a Carbon Audit Register
(thereby ensuring carbon retirement and that the same tree is not sold twice)
Audit & Compliance: Providing emitters with assurances in regard to audits;
methodology and standards.
Certification: Providing Carbon Offset certificates to emitters.
Fire Insurance: Providing fire insurance cover for first 5 years.
Reporting: Provide annual growing report to emitter clients for their internal records or
Annual Reports.
Single Point of Contact: For major emitters – one central contact point and not
multiple Landowners.
