Carbon Offsetting Guide
Carbon offsetting involves calculating the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions produced by, for example, an individual, a company, or a particular project or event, and then purchasing credits for the equivalent amount of GHGs from an emissions prevention, reduction or removal project. The aim is to balance the GHGs emitted against GHGs sequestered.
By financially supporting carbon offset projects, a company can offset emissions that are currently unavoidable and hence reduce its ‘net’ environmental impact.
