How much do I need to offset?
Calculate the recommended offset for you or your family using the EPA carbon emissions calculator:
http://www.epa.gov/climatechange/emissions/ind_calculator.html
Carbon offset credits are one part of a comprehensive plan to help reduce the impact of CO2 emissions and help reverse the path of global warming.
You can measure your annual or per-activity emissions, find ways to reduce them, then find ways to offset what you can’t reduce, and even raise awareness in your community about climate change.
Here are a few resources we recommend to get started.
