A growing number of our customers have realized the brand enhancement opportunity associated with Carbon Neutral status .

Attaining carbon neutral status means that your business in any given 12 months has offset its emissions by 100%.

• Slow but thorough method: First you assess your footprint and then embark on an astute reduction strategy cutting your emissions every year until you have achieved carbon neutrality. In most cases, this would involve considerable investment to offset your final emissions that cannot be cut through efficiency methods. Solutions are dependant on your type of business but might include solar, wind, biomass or another. Offsetting can also involve purchasing carbon credit certificates from a carbon project that meets your triple bottom line investment criteria.
• Fast but ongoing method: If you want carbon neutrality immediately and are not willing to embark on a reduction strategy or if your business has a very small footprint then you can achieve carbon neutrality status by purchasing carbon offset certificates to the amount of your CO2 emissions. E.g. CO2 footprint is 10 tons and you annually buy 10 tons of CO2 from a carbon offset project then you will achieve carbon neutral status in any given year.
