Our electricity consume, car driving or air travel causes the emission of large quantities of CO2 and other greenhouse gases to the atmosphere. CO2 is used as standard reference for all greenhouse gases sent out to the atmosphere by the combustion of fossil fuels, such as oil, gas and coal. This results in the so called greenhouse effect, responsible for climate change and global warming.
Offset means that you contribute to reduce, in another place of the world, the same quantity of CO2 you have emitted. By doing this you can neutralize your CO2 emissions.
CO2 Neutral makes this possible by contributing in projects on renewable energy, such as wind farms, solar panels or biomass plants. The amount of CO2 emitted in the atmosphere due to your activities is reduced or fixed in another place of the world. By offsetting your emissions you help with the prevention and mitigation of the climate change.
CO2 Neutral offsets your CO2 emissions by supporting projects all around the world in:
- Renewable energy; replacing fossil fuels such as coal, gas and oil.
- Energy efficiency; reducing of the amount of fuels or electricity needed
