Carbon Offsets Make an Impact

Verified Offsets with Native Energy

The carbon offsets collected will go to an innovative program through Native Energy. An example of one of their programs is the Mexico biodigesters project that has been implemented alongside Sistema.bio in Mexico and Uganda.

Native works with businesses that are going the extra mile to catalyze climate action. There is also so much we can do as individuals to contribute to a healthier planet. Offsetting your travel footprint is one of those things that cumulatively spur positive climate action. We invite you to join our community of climate catalysts and explore our climate action tools. Let’s all go the distance for a more sustainable future!
