WHAT DOES CARBON OFFSETTING MEAN EXACTLY?
Businesses looking to minimise their impact on the environment can choose to work with a company such as EKOS or Toitu to measure, minimise and offset their carbon footprint.
According to Nelson-based EKOS, a Zero Carbon business has measured and offset 100% of its C02 emissions from all operating activities by funding indigenous plantations where the trees planted absorb carbon emissions equivalent to what has been generated on your trip. A Climate Positive organisation has committed to offsetting at least 120% of their measured C02 emissions.
