Grassroots Carbon Public Benefit LLC General Terms of service
for the Online Purchase of Carbon Credits
Effective as of August 1, 2024
1. Introduction, Purpose, and Acceptance of the Terms
Grassroots Carbon Public Benefit LLC (“GRC”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) offers the use of an online platform (the “Site”) that provides users with the opportunity to purchase carbon credits on the basis of additional atmospheric carbon stored in the healthy soils in our network of regenerative ranches. Each carbon credit represents the removal of one metric ton of atmospheric carbon dioxide (tCO2) and the storage of this CO2 in grassland soil. The capturing and storage of atmospheric CO2 is based on natural processes based on healthy vegetation and healthy soil. All credits are generated according to the protocols of The Regenerative Standard. By purchasing these credits, you are not only reducing the atmospheric carbon levels, but you also support the regeneration and maintenance of healthy grassland landscapes through verified carbon sequestration practices. Please read these terms of service (the “Terms”) carefully before purchasing any carbon credits. By clicking "I agree" or by making a purchase, you accept these Terms.
