Ecologi is a B Corp-certified climate SaaS platform with a genuine reforestation business and transparent emissions reporting, but faces material credibility damage from selling carbon credits later found to lack integrity. The Keo Seima REDD+ controversy—confirmed by BBC Panorama and academic research—directly undermines its core offering. Operational emissions fell 20% year-on-year, but lack independent assurance.
