Greenhouse gases (GHG), like carbon dioxide (CO2), are emitted when fossil-fuels are consumed. We all emit CO2 emissions when we drive a car, fly in a plane, use electricity, or generate waste.
- Offsetting CO2 emissions is an act of counterbalancing the amount of gases we emit.
- When you travel, a “carbon offset” payment can be made which will be put towards a number of projects providing offsets.
- All projects provide a positive contribution to sustainable on-site development and are compatible with all dimensions of sustainability
Carbon offsets for a 14-day Tanzania trip with 7-day Kilimanjaro trek and 5-day safari with international flights ranges from $150 to $200/person depending on your origination city.
