High-impact climate solutions, funded faster.
We deploy philanthropic capital to high-impact, under-funded climate solutions.
Climate change threatens the things we care about most.
Our health, safety, favorite places, and kids’ futures are at risk. But the connection feels abstract, and it’s hard to know where to start. So most of us don't do anything. Less than 2% of global philanthropy goes to climate.
Terraset breaks the paralysis.
We connect people to the impact they care about and move capital where it's needed most.
We fund high-impact, under-resourced climate solutions.
We back early-stage, underfunded climate solutions with the greatest potential to change the trajectory of the planet.
Greenhouse gas removal
Pulling CO₂ out of the atmosphere
Superpollutant elimination
Stopping methane emissions and refrigerant leaks at the source to deliver the fastest near-term reductions in warming available.
Emerging ideas
New pathways and projects that need early capital to prove themselves before conventional markets will engage.
We design innovative financial mechanisms that maximize and multiply every philanthropic dollar.
Pre-purchase commitments
We commit capital to projects upfront, giving projects the revenue they need now to build, hire, and scale before market funding arrives.
Revolving fund
A philanthropic fund that pre-purchases greenhouse gas credits, sells them to corporate buyers, and reinvests the proceeds for new commitments.
PRIs and recoverable grants
We structure capital that unlocks funders who need a return but can take on more risk than traditional investors.
Put capital to work on climate.
Personal impact
Our lives have a footprint. We connect people to climate solutions that directly address the emissions they feel responsible for.
Local impact
Climate change hits close to home. Whether it's a watershed, a coastline, a community facing extreme heat, or a food system under pressure, our projects restore the places people care most about.
Systemic impact
The solutions that will stabilize our climate exist, but they’re not market ready yet. Early catalytic capital helps key sectors get off the ground and unlock essential follow-on investment follows.
