Inspired entrepreneurs who help spread the opportunities of carbon offsetting

Maxed out... Martijn Verschuren will never be maxed out. He is a highly skilled and experienced manager with a proven track record of working towards sustainability in the construction and infrastructure sector. His aim is to make companies aware of the need to start the sustainability transition. Martijn is always exploring and literally puts his “energy” into figuring out all the possibilities to reduce CO2 emissions. From experience, Martijn (a former manager of business development at H4A) knows that it has to happen now! With regard to the Climate Agreement, Martijn thinks it is important to commit to meeting the zero-emission targets. Martijn likes to tell companies that ecommit offers the solution to the residual emissions that cannot be avoided when companies focus on reducing their emissions: You can compensate that part directly by investing in certified nature projects, thereby contributing to the capture of CO2 from the atmosphere.
