An initiative of Compte CO2

Overview of the project

The CO2 Bank Card is the only bank card that enables you to use the only complementary money that is completely devoted to the fight against Climate Change.

CO2 is “produced” every time an individual or a company reduces its CO2 emissions.

By using the CO2 Card for my daily purchases, I enhance the reduction of CO2 emissions caused by other actors in the fight against climate change. The CO2 Bank Card is a prepaid card that can be used wherever needed. With CO2 Bank Card app, a completely new banking experience is up for grabs. With the CO2 Card, the fight against climate change becomes as simple as going to buy a loaf of bread !

Objective

Quantitative results

Since the launch of the CO2 Card in 2018, around 1,500 tonnes of CO2 have been circulated thanks to the CO2 Card. Which is the same as the amount of CO2 reductions too !

Qualitative results

The CO2 Card is also an educational tool that is interesting for individuals as it raises awareness and educates them on their own CO2 emissions.
