Why purchase carbon credits or offsets from Today’s Realistic Solutions now:
Many of us want to do something about global warming today, or about the increased levels of greenhouse gasses in the atmosphere, but do not know what to do.
Scientist all over the world are attempting to find ways of controlling the excess CO2 emitted by humans and animals alike, along with industrial greenhouse gasses. The United States Department of Energy discusses several of these new technologies on their web site.
If you search the web, you will find 1.9 million hits for carbon offsets, or ways with which you and me can contribute to reduce our carbon footprint. A lot of these are for companies that invest their money in projects all over the world. Projects like reforestation, carbon sequestration (where carbon emissions are injected into earth fissures and stored there), wind farms, landfill gas capture, etcetera. Most of these companies will give you the basic scientific data that seems to corroborate the efficiency of their project, and even tell you how much CO2 is offset by their projects.
It is our belief, that most of these corporations have a legitimate interest in preserving our environment and improve the quality of our atmosphere. Some of these corporations’ projects are overseas.
We are a local American Non Profit Organization based in Colorado, and all of our projects, as described, are here in the United States.
Planting and maintaining two trees now, help offset aproximately two metric tons of CO2.
