PERSONAL OFFSETTING

To achieve ‘climate neutral’ status you must ensure that your lifestyle does not have a
negative impact on our climate.
Reduction and where possible elimination of CO2 emissions should be your priority when
aiming for carbon neutral status, leaving only unavoidable emissions to be offset.

You can work out how much CO2 is created by your personal or household lifestyle using
our online calculators.
You will need to gather your electricity, gas and heating-oil bills, details of your car type
and the number of miles travelled, along with the air and train journeys you have made,
then enter the information into our calculator.

When your total emissions have been quantified to a specific amount of CO2, for example
2.5 tonnes, then we charge you a fee per tonne to offset your carbon emissions.
We do this by funding projects designed to reduce CO2 emissions that would otherwise
have occurred, thereby neutralising the damage that your activities have caused.

Please take a look at our Projects pages.
