Tradewater is taking action now to protect the planet for the future

Tradewater is a mission-based certified B-Corporation that collects, controls, and destroys potent greenhouse gases, eliminating their release to the atmosphere. 

Our target is super polluting non-CO2 gases that are exponentially more dangerous than CO2, and account for nearly half of all global warming from human activity since 1970. Once released, they quickly do their damage and cannot be removed from the atmosphere. Mitigating these gases is a critical emergency brake solution, giving us a chance to prevent catastrophic climate change. 

Our global team is focused on two types of non-CO2 greenhouse gases:  

Halocarbons

We collect and destroy old halocarbons that are some of the most potent gases in the world. Banning of these gases from production by the Montreal Protocol started in the 1990s, yet there are still large volumes that have already been produced and distributed around the world that are at risk of being released into the atmosphere.

Methane

We identify leaking orphaned and uncontrolled oil and gas wells in the United States, measure their methane emissions, and permanently plug them. Methane is a short-lived climate pollutant with a global warming potential of 84 times that of CO2 over 20 years, and is responsible for at least 30% of global warming since industrial times.

Take climate action today

Our global team works tirelessly to recover and mitigate these super pollutants. You can help us in this effort. If you have or know of any old refrigerants that needs to be responsibly destroyed of, or know of a leaking methane well, please reach out to us and let us know by clicking the manage gas icon below.

This essential work enables us to provide verified, high-quality carbon credits that help businesses and individuals achieve their climate goals. The support of our work is re-invested to scale impact as quickly as possible. When you choose Tradewater, you’re investing in a proven, results-driven program with a measurable impact.

Together, we can build a livable future for all—starting today.
