Offset your carbon emissions

Why should you consider offsetting your carbon emissions?

Each time we heat our homes, take a flight or drive our cars, CO₂ is added into the atmosphere. CO₂ is a greenhouse gas that is released when fossil fuels such as oil, gas and coal are burnt. A build up of CO₂ in the atmosphere can cause the earth to 'heat up', so affecting the climate we live in.

You can all help reduce the amount of CO₂ produced by taking simple steps such as walking or cycling to work, taking the train instead of flying, or switching gas and electricity suppliers so you are using renewable or green energy.

You are also able to offset the remaining CO₂ that can't help but be produced by buying carbon credits or certificates from companies who can offset on our behalf. The companies do this by investing in projects and other initiatives, or buying credits from businesses who are only allowed to produce a certain amount of CO₂ each year, under EU law.
