Carbon offsetting allows you to compensate for your unavoidable emissions by helping fund projects that deliver an equivalent CO2 saving elsewhere.

 

Offsetting won’t reverse the effects caused by your emissions. The environmental harm caused by these emissions cannot be undone. However, CO2 has the same effect on the planet wherever it is emitted.

 

By making a contribution to a carbon offsetting scheme you are helping to balance the impact of your own actions by funding an equal reduction in emissions elsewhere.
