Make the Planet Happier with Carbon Offsets for Travel
Carbon offsetting is a verified, direct, and immediate means to reduce the negative climate impact from the travel and hospitality industry. The Cloverly API calculates carbon emissions, determines the amount needed to offset, and purchases the offset. Offer your customers, business partners, or employees the option to green all of their travel with Cloverly.

Aviation Has Big Plans for Carbon Offsetting
Many major airlines have vowed to make all new international flights carbon neutral after 2020. Carbon offsetting plays a major role in this initiative, along with a variety of sustainable fuel sources.
There is no alternative to aviation when it comes to long distance and low carbon travel. Carbon offsetting can therefore be seen as an immediate, direct, and pragmatic means to encourage action to limit climate change impacts, at least in the short term.

Why Cloverly
Flexible API Integration
The Cloverly API can integrate seamlessly with your online experience, allowing passengers the option to offset the impact of their specific flight as part of their fare. Or you can use Cloverly to calculate and offset the carbon emissions from air transportation within your supply chain or other parts of your business.
Verified Carbon Offsets
To be publicly available via the Cloverly API, offsets must be registered and tracked by generally accepted and reputable organizations in the voluntary markets. Our projects are verified by Gold Standard, Verified Carbon Standard, and others to ensure the quality, accuracy, and integrity of the offsets.
Emission Calculations
The quantity and type of emissions are key inputs for determining the amount of carbon to be offset. Whether you're calculating emissions in real time or entering a known quantity, the Cloverly API can match these quantities with real carbon offset projects to mitigate the effects.
Looker Neutralizes the Environmental Impact of Conference Travel
Offsetting the carbon impact of air travel is easy with Cloverly. In fact, at the JOIN data conference, the team from Looker (now part of Google) wanted to calculate and offset the carbon footprint from attendees' travel to and from the conference. The Looker team used Cloverly to neutralize the impact of the travel, 98% of which was from flights.


Hackathon Teams Explore Creative Ways to Use Cloverly in the Travel Industry
The International Air Transport Association (IATA), the largest trade association for the world's airlines, asked Cloverly to serve as the featured carbon offsetting API for the 13th IATA hackathon. During the hackathon, multiple teams discovered creative ways to integrate Cloverly into the travel and booking process. Their apps and websites encourage passengers and industry professionals to offset their travel through such inventive ideas as competitions and loyalty programs.
