Holy Sequestration!

Planktos is proud to announce the donation of climate forests that offset 100% of carbon dioxide produced by The Holy See this year, making the Vatican the first carbon-neutral sovereign state in modern history.

Our founder and CEO, Russ George, presented these carbon offsets to Reverend Eminence Cardianal Paul Poupard, who presided over this historical ceremony. “As President of the Pontifical Council of Culture; I am honored to receive this donation from the leaders of Planktos-Klimafa. This donation means an entire section of a national park in central Europe will be reforested. In this way, the Vatican will do its small part in contributing to the elimination of polluting emissions from CO2 which is threatening the survival of this planet."

We would like to thank the Catholic community for taking a leadership role in protecting our Earth, and for making a positive example for the rest of the world. I hope many believers will follow in your green footsteps.
