Kita
Kita's vision is to be the carbon insurer for the climate crisis, de-risking carbon removal solutions to accelerate their ability to scale. Kita removes this “carbon delivery risk” from sellers and buyers in the market, using insurance products that guarantee the quality and delivery of carbon units and carbon removal solutions.
