Carbon offset

A carbon  offset is a reduction or removal of emissions of carbon dioxide or other greenhouse gases made in order to compensate for emissions made elsewhere. A carbon offset credit is a transferrable instrument certified by governments or independent certification bodies to represent an emission reduction of one metric tonne of CO2, or an equivalent amount of other GHGs. Recently, it was revealed that  forest carbon offsets approved by the world’s leading certifier Shell &  other big corporations are largely worthless and could make global heating worse.
