Save Energy

Carbon offsetting is best used in the context of a long term environmental strategy. We encourage you to reduce your carbon emissions and the other (non-carbon) damage that you are doing to the environment, and offset the carbon that you really can't avoid.

If your long term environmental plan broadly follows the steps below, the volume of CO2 emitted by you, your family or your business (and therefore the amount you need to offset) should go down in years to come.

  1. AVOID energy use
  2. REDUCE energy use
  3. SWITCH to renewables
  4. OFFSET what's left

To get you started, to the left are some tips and ideas on how to reduce your carbon footprint and help work towards a better climate.
