Who are we?

The Social Carbon Company (SCC) is a provider of advice and carbon management services to project developers in the Verified Emission Reduction (VER) market. It specializes in applying the methodology of Social Carbon, a system of adding value to carbon credits by quantifying a project’s contribution to sustainable development.

Based in São Paulo, SCC is a partnership between CantorCO2e and the developers of the Social Carbon Methodology. CantorCO2e is a leading provider of financial services to the world’s environmental and energy markets.

Our aim is to provide clients with high-value VERs that represent not just a demonstrable reduction in greenhouse gas emissions, but also clear social and environmental benefits to the areas where the projects operate. In a market where legitimacy is becoming increasingly valued, Social CarbonTM provides a uniquely transparent way of demonstrating to buyers of VERs that with their purchase they are helping to improve the lives of communities in developing countries.
