WHY OFFSET: Is carbon bad? No, carbon is the element all living creatures share.
Carbon is C, Carbon Dioxide is CO2) - Carbon dioxide (CO2), the gas we exhale, is part of the global cycle of
life. A healthy environment is balanced, and right now, we are creating more
carbon dioxide than can be balanced out. always been a part of the global cycle
of life, but modern human society has singularly altered the chemical balance of
the atmosphere, through forest and rangeland fires, industry, transport and
travel to the point of no return. Climate change, pollution, over-consumption,
over-population, food insecurity are all part of the problem facing the planet.
We believe the change has to come from the ground-up, from the people taking
action. CarbonNeutralPlanet connects people to nature and offsets their carbon
at a fair price and local communities steward the trees and protect a World
Biosphere Reserve..
