What Are Carbon Offsets?



Almost everything we do releases carbon into the atmosphere - from driving our cars to watching TV to buying clothes! Carbon is one of the most significant contributors to global warming and climate change.

Each and everyone of us has something called a carbon footprint. A carbon footprint is basically the amount of that is emitted into the atmosphere as a result of our day to day activities. Offsetting emissions is a voluntary act as it is up to each individual to make a difference and take responsibility for their impact on the environment.

A carbon offset is the act of mitigating greenhouse gas emissions. Basically you are paying to 'remove' the equivalent amount of carbon that your activity (i.e. driving a car) emitted. For example, driving a small car on average emits 2.4 tonnes of carbon into the atmosphere. A small car offset will effectively remove that amount of carbon from the atmosphere. Carbon offsets (otherwise known as carbon credits) generally remove carbon from the atmosphere through preventative methods like energy conservation.


What Does Carbon Neutral Mean?



By purchasing a carbon offset your car, house or flight will be carbon neutral. This basically means that the carbon emitted from your activity is counter-balanced through the offset you purchased. So you have emitted X amount of carbon into the atmosphere but you have then removed that same amount, thus making your carbon emissions neutral. Living a more sustainable lifestyle includes reducing your emissions and in the long term becoming carbon neutral.


Benefits Of Offsetting Your Carbon Emissions:



  • Know that you are doing your bit to help the environment and help reduce climate change.
  • Help to improve air, soil and water quality.
  • Make your commitment to the environment and show your friends and family that you truly care for the environment.
  • Contribute to the advancement of the renewable energy industry in Australia.
  • Help slow climate change and ensure your grandchildren have access to the same world we do today.
