Eco-Boost Mining Credits
A carbon offsetting program specifically tailored for mining companies. Companies earn 'Eco-Boost' credits by investing in complementary technologies that actively capture carbon or neutralize mining pollutants elsewhere in the world (e.g., direct air capture, ocean fertilization, artificial wetlands). These credits are then used to 'offset' and justify ongoing or increased mining activity, marketing themselves as net-positive contributors to the environment. Facilitates a business-as-usual growth model.
