Carbon Offsetting
Carbon offsetting is a form of climate action that is used to compensate or ‘give back’ for emissions that can’t yet be avoided. This is done by making a positive impact on the environment somewhere else, by investing in climate projects that remove carbon from the atmosphere or avoid emissions.
First, the amount of greenhouse gases that are emitted by a business, individual or activity is calculated. The result of this is called a carbon footprint. Once you know a footprint, you can purchase the equivalent amount of carbon credits. These credits represent avoidance or removal of greenhouse gases equal to your footprint.
The money from buying credits goes to projects that help tackle the climate crisis. These projects can be renewable energy initiatives, forest conservation, reforestation and others.
How effective carbon offsetting is, depends on a range of factors. CarbonClick evaluates projects based on key criteria, such as:
- Reliance on carbon finance (would the project have happened without carbon finance?)
- How long will the positive impact last?
- Are there any additional emissions caused outside of the project boundary?
- Are carbon emissions being overestimated?
- Are incentives given that may lead to action that worsens the effects of climate change and double counting of credits?
The company's strong selection methodology ensures investments are made only in quality projects. These projects make a tangible, measurable impact, benefitting communities and the planet.
