Oset of Emissions from Energy & Water Consumption 2010
We all try to produce as little CO2 as possible. Nevertheless, no one wants to sit in a hot room during summer. myclimate oers the possibility to oset unavoidable emissions with carbon osetting measures elsewhere. myclimate calculates the climate-impacting emissions produced by activities and products and provides consultation services to businesses regarding the optimal way to oset CO2 according to the principle of Avoid Reduce Oset. Do your bit for tangible climate protection and reduce your emissions with a myclimate carbon oset project
