When you offset your carbon footprint through MicroEnergy Credits, you enable microentrepreneurs in developing countries to make the small but critical investment in clean, modern energy for the first time, helping them ascend from poverty. These clean investments are made as an integrated part of their microenterprise growth–so they can achieve increasing prosperity while lessening, rather than increasing, the toll on the environment. Moreover, when microfinance institutions bring their gender aware approach to clean energy development it results in significant local job creation particularly for women and girls.
