Global Warming Now: How to Offset your Carbon Footprints
Carbon dioxide emissions are causing the Earth’s climate to change and warm, which will have catastrophic results if we do not act to reduce them. Carbon dioxide emissions in our atmosphere are at their highest levels in recorded history, spanning over 650,000 years.
The effects of climate change can be seen now. Temperatures are increasing, glaciers are receding at unprecedented speeds, storms are becoming more frequent and severe, and chunks of ice the size of Connecticut are breaking off the Antarctic ice shelf.
Carbon dioxide emissions are a global problem, so reducing a ton of CO2 in Costa Rica or North Dakota has the same climate change benefit as doing so in your backyard.
How Carbon Offsets Work
We are all responsible for climate change and we all must be part of the solution. Carbonfund.org makes it simple for anyone, or any organization, to reduce and offset their carbon emissions. How does it work? Follow these simple steps that take you through the process:
1. Reduce What You Can, Offset What You Can’t. The first step is to reduce your carbon emissions wherever possible. There are many cost-effective energy saving and carbon reducing opportunities anyone can take. To learn more, please go to the Saving Energy section.
2. Calculate Your Emissions, and Contribute. There are several Carbon Calculators through the Web which will help you to figure out your carbon footprints and to know what you can do to offset them.
