Our established relationships with public and private organisations create momentum for projects and optimise value in the supply chain. We channel carbon funding to accelerate commercial returns from carbon removal and sustainable land use.
Our ethos is one of partnership and inclusivity. We bring together expertise and know-how with robust science, technology and innovation. MRV (Monitoring, Reporting and Verification) is at the centre of LEIFF project design. This ensures project integrity and transparency and underpins quality carbon credits.
