CarbonPlan: Grantee Spotlight
.png)
The Giving Green Fund plans to award a restricted grant to CarbonPlan, a US-based nonprofit that analyzes the design and efficacy of climate projects and programs, primarily those related to carbon offsets, carbon removal, and climate risks. This is one of a series of ecosystem grants supporting foundational work to unlock innovative policy approaches for durable carbon dioxide removal (CDR) demand.
CarbonPlan falls within our philanthropic strategy of carbon dioxide removal. Please see Giving Green’s deep dive report on CDR for more information, including risks and potential co-benefits, recommended sub-strategies, theory of change, funding need, and key uncertainties.

Giving Green believes that additional climate donations are likely to be most impactful when directed to our top nonprofits. For a number of reasons, we may choose to recommend grants to other organizations for work that we believe is at least as impactful as grants to our top recommendations. We are highlighting this grant to offer transparency to donors to the Giving Green Fund as well as to provide a resource for donors who are particularly interested in this impact strategy. This is a nonpartisan analysis (study or research) and is provided for educational purposes.
