Wren Climate, PBCReviews of wren.co

Wren gives something of comfort in a very difficult world.

Great service, love what Wren does for the planet.

Detailed explanations of all the projects your money goes towards, excellent carbon calculations and easy user experience

There are many, many companies selling lies and promising carbon offsets that amount to nothing. Wren diligently provides detailed updates and continues to refine and improve where money goes to have the most effective impact on solving climate issues

I love what Wren do, they are doing amazing job, I would like to contribute actively too. But I can’t, so at least I support them this way and still feel beeing somehow active. 😊

I've been with Wren for three years now and have been thoroughly impressed with their transparency and integrity. Although there are many carbon offset schemes that are just greenwashing, Wren is one of the good ones. They take great pains to thoroughly research the most effective and permanent solutions. Aside from that, Wren makes you more aware of ways you can reduce your carbon footprint (and thus save money, if you like, by lowering the cost of your subscription). Alternatively, if you want to donate more, they have a Trailblazer option that funds cutting-edge technology that hasn't scaled enough yet. If you want to go even further, you can work your way towards offsetting historical emissions or sponsor new users to sign up. If we care about climate change and have enough income to have a middle-class lifestyle in a wealthy country, in my humble opinion we have a sacred obligation to seriously consider joining something like Wren. To be blunt, the alternative is to die with regret knowing that we failed future generations (or our kids, if we have kids). I don't want that, and I'm sure you don't either. As a full-time college student living on loans and part-time jobs, donating to Wren isn't easy. But I know the climate can't wait, so I'm thrilled to be able to put aside a portion of my money towards this cause. We're collectively going to have to pay off our climate debt one way or another, so it only makes sense to start now. Since I've joined Wren, they have encouraged me to try out a plant-based diet, replace flying with staycations, call my political representatives, and have meaningful conversations about climate change with my parents and friends. Being part of a community like Wren that care about the climate is a wonderful thing. It's also the right thing to do. And if fully "offsetting" your emissions is out of reach, it's easy to select an amount that works for you even if it's just $5 per month.

Wren is really trying to fight climate change. The projects you can support through Wren are well chosen and do good for all of planet earth. I think this is a good way to become active when you think that climate change is too big of a problem to handle. There still is hope. And Wren is one of the reasons to not loose hope!

Transparency and a commitment to tackling the climate crisis, even when it means working collaboratively with competitors! What's not to love?
