No better way to reduce your carbon footprint I can't find a better way to reduce my carbon footprint more conveniently than paying Wren to offset it for me. I do want to make changes myself as an individual but the impact of that is limited. However, it's not nothing and Wren suggests those changes as well.

Wren – can't be more transparent Wren is a great way to really have a tangible positive impact on man-made climate change. You yourself can decide how much you want to spent – it even calculates how much you'd need to pay to offset your footprint entirely – and through the monthly updates that they provide you know exactly where your help is put into. I can only recommend it and it isn't even that expensive: I personally only pay 20€ per month to offset my entire CO₂ footprint and a little bit more. So when looking at our own and our kids future: This is not much to change the world for the better.

Wren is a much needed project Wren is a much needed project. It makes carbon offseting an easy, fun and scalable process. Great UI as well as clear communication. Two features I admire: 1. Groups: It's an innovative use case and has great potential for friends, families and team members (companies, orgs, etc..) 2. Carbon API. Building automations around offseting is quite an interesting platform for building an endless amount of use cases. I'm eager to test it out!

Clear insight where your money goes Clear insight where your money goes, even to what is used for advertisements. Nice updates and direct impact projects which they support!

Wren is about so much more than carbon offsets I've been supporting Wren for a few years now as a poor college student. They're transparent, impactful, and effective. Wren is about so much more than offsetting — it's also about lifestyle changes such as eating more plant-based foods instead of meat, replacing flying with other things, and talking about climate change with loved ones. I think Wren is very conscious of the limits of carbon offsetting. Even though that's their core business model, they are doing a lot of great educational work on social media to raise awareness for the importance of taking personal action on climate change. It's easy to write Wren off by saying that "carbon offsets are only a band-aid solution when systemic change is what's really needed," but some people seem to have that attitude almost as an excuse to avoid taking action. If you have the financial means to support Wren, most upper-middle-class people are morally obligated to do that in my view. That's only the beginning of what's needed to respond to the climate crisis, but you've got to start somewhere. As Wren's tagline says, "systemic change starts with you."
