FAQ
What is the carbon footprint?
The carbon footprint is the sum of all the greenhouse gases a person, company or even country releases into the atmosphere, expressed in CO₂ equivalent. These emissions are responsible for global warming, and as such, they need to be addressed in the fight against climate change.
What is carbon offsetting?
In the same way as many activities emit greenhouse gases, others have the potential to absorb them. This absorption capacity can be quantified in tons, the same way emissions are calculated. Each ton of carbon absorbed from the atmosphere constitutes a carbon credit, or carbon offset. Thanks to this accounting system, people and organizations can purchase carbon credits to make up for emissions they cannot avoid: this is called carbon offsetting
How does offsetting help combat climate change?
Since carbon emissions are the main culprit for climate change, they need to be tackled in order to keep the global temperature rise below 1.5°C. Everyone is working to reduce them by adopting green energy and changing processes, but the world still lacks certain technologies needed to get rid of carbon emissions completely. While we wait for these technologies to be developed, we can neutralize our climate impact by offsetting these emissions
