Everytime you drive your car, take a flight or switch your lights on at home, harmful Carbon Dioxide (C02) emissions are given off into the
atmosphere, causing the Earth's climate to change and warm.
Every day now we hear on the news that temperatures are increasing, glaciers are receding at unprecedented speeds,
whole chunks of the Antarctic ice shelf are breaking off, warmer seasons are becoming longer, and storms are becoming more severe and
causing more and more damage.
If we do not act now, Carbon dioxide emissions globally will continue to cause the Earth’s climate to change and warm, which will
have catastrophic results.
Offsetting your Carbon emissions means paying someone to reduce CO2 in the atmosphere by the same amount that your activities add.
In this way you can 'neutralise' / 'balance' / 'offset' the CO2 added by your activities.
