The organization operates within the international trade and development sector, focusing on environmental finance mechanisms that link offsetting with poverty outcomes.
Based in Walnut Creek, California, COTAP.org works with a small team to facilitate transparent funding flows to forestry initiatives and related landscape restoration efforts. The company’s activities have included partnerships with entities such as Next Level Japan and EcoPenguin, reflecting collaboration with other organizations to expand the reach and impact of its offsetting model.
