Carbon Offsetting Guide

A carbon offset is defined as “any activity that compensates for the emission of carbon dioxide (CO2) or other greenhouse gases (measured in carbon dioxide equivalents, CO2e) by providing for an emission reduction elsewhere”

What is a carbon footprint

A Greenhouse Gas (GHG) footprint is an assessment of the amount of greenhouse gasses emitted (or captured) into the atmosphere, over a reference period, by the activities of an organization or a territory. 

The SBTi Net-Zero Standard

The SBTi launched the first Net-Zero Standard in October 2021, providing companies from all sectors with guidelines for reducing their emissions and achieving global carbon neutrality by 2050. Find out what these guidelines are! 

Carbon Neutral vs Net Zero: what is the difference?

Carbon neutrality refers to net-zero CO2 emissions and is achieved when anthropogenic CO2 emissions are balanced globally by anthropogenic CO2 removal over a specific period.

6 reasons to measure your carbon footprint

Calculating your company’s carbon footprint is a clever plan to develop a solid environmental strategy. An increasing number of customers and investors are getting sensitive to environmental issues and are looking for engaged partners.

Introduction to Nature-based Solutions

The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) defines Nature-based Solutions as “actions to protect, sustainably manage, and restore natural or modified ecosystems".

Is carbon offsetting greenwashing?

Climate contribution, or offset, is the third step of a solid decarbonization strategy after measuring and reducing its emissions. Offsetting is necessary to achieve global carbon neutrality, even though it can be perceived as greenwashing. Transparent communication is essential to avoid accusations.

What can my company do to reduce its carbon footprint?

After measuring its carbon footprint, a company has several options for reducing its emissions. For example, it can engage its stakeholders or implement a business travel policy within the organization. Discover our non-exhaustive list of actions to reduce your impact on the environment.
