Carbon Offsetting

WHAT IS IT?

Leaf
Aside from finding ways to produce less CO2 in the first place - you can also pay to offset the carbon emissions you do make.

It’s simple: you pay a fee to an offsetting company who use the money to remove the amount of CO2 you produce.


OUR SCHEME

Light Bulb
Our Gold Standard Scheme is in partnership with myclimate - a Swiss based charity who fund clean energy solutions, especially in developing countries.

Endorsed by 47 NGOs worldwide including many environmental groups, Gold Standard methodology was created to encourage a shift from a fossil fuel based economy to a renewable energy economy.

This just means your money is going directly to a project which has immediate positive impact on the environment and the local community.
