Klima is on a mission to help people offset and shrink their carbon footprint in a matter of minutes. While there are tons of small, practical steps that people can take every day to reduce their carbon footprint, the idea of getting started and implementing the changes can seem daunting. Klima aims to capture the interest of "climate pioneers" and show them how simple it is to take action and see their impact in real-time.

The app provides a visual representation of a person's individual contributions by the month and year, and users can choose to support natural, technological, or social solutions—or all three—with their offset strategy. Klima helps users get a better sense of their impact, such as by showing how many trees they've helped to plant with their efforts.
