Custom CO₂ offset
Global emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) were low prior to the Industrial Revolution. In 1950 the world emitted around 6 billion tones of CO2. By 1990 they reached more than 22 billion tons and have risen since then. Today the world emits a record of over 40 billion tons of CO2 every year and have not yet reached their peak. 1 tone of CO2 is emitted by flying from Zurich to Gran Canaria (round trip) or driving a gasoline over 5’000 km. A beech tree has to grow for about 80 years to be able to absorb one ton of CO2.
Mitigate the effects of climate change
By investing in projects that reduce or remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, individuals and businesses can help to mitigate the effects of climate change, such as rising sea levels, more frequent and severe weather events, and increased risk of droughts and wildfires.
Every ton of CO2 needs a price
By offsetting their carbon footprint, individuals and businesses can demonstrate their commitment to sustainability and encourage others to adopt more sustainable practices as well.
Climate protection projects and renewable energies
Carbon offsetting can support the development of clean energy and other low-carbon projects, such as reforestation and methane capture, which can help to reduce carbon emissions and promote sustainable development.
Working towards a low CO2 world
By investing in low-carbon projects and supporting sustainable practices, individuals and businesses can help to build a more resilient and sustainable economy that is less dependent on fossil fuels and more able to adapt to the impacts of climate change.
