Fixed amount: how does it work?
How much does it cost to offset carbon emissions? And where to start? Here are some examples to help you understand offsetting with a fixed amount. Start today and see the benefits of carbon offsetting for your organization.
Start from: your company’s emissions
Consider your company’s carbon emissions from employees, vehicles, and office space. If you have a rough estimate of your company’s total emissions, this can be a good starting point for offsetting. The amount needed to offset your emissions becomes your annual budget.
Start from: the amount you want to spend
Carbon emissions are inevitable for companies. You do not need an exact measure of your emissions to start offsetting. Setting a budget that you want to spend annually on carbon offsetting is a practical and achievable method often used.
Start from: a percentage of your revenue
From our experience, if you calculate your company’s emissions accurately, the cost to offset typically ranges between 1% and 3% of your annual revenue. Using your revenue as a basis for your offsetting budget is a smart and efficient approach.
