General
The Environmental Resources Trust (ERT) is a wholly owned nonprofit enterprise of Winrock International and was founded in 1996 to offer trusted solutions to environmental markets to catalyze transformational climate impacts.

ERT operates three carbon crediting programs:
- ACR is an internationally recognized carbon crediting program that operates in global compliance and voluntary carbon markets.
- The Architecture for REDD+ Transactions (ART) was established in 2018 as the first market-based initiative to incentivize the protection and restoration of tropical forests at scale.
