Offset your carbon footprint today!

INDIVIDUALS

• TWP offers various options to individuals and businesses interested in offsetting their CO2 emissions.  TWP offsets 1 ton of CO2 for $10. You can use our CO2 calculator to quantify your personal emissions and then purchase your offsets below.
  
  

	Trees One tree can sequester 1 ton of carbon over its lifespan of 25-30 plus years. TWP plants five trees for every one ton to be offset to assure that at least 1 of 5 trees survives to maturity. Trees are planted within communities as part of a family reforestation program or in and around protected areas or national parks.
Offset with Trees:	1 ton $10.00 2 tons $20.00 3 tons $30.00 4 tons $40.00 5 tons $50.00 6 tons $60.00 7 tons $70.00 8 tons $80.00 9 tons $90.00 10 tons $100.00

	Solar Air Heaters Every year, each of our solar air heaters  prevents 1.39 tons of carbon emissions from being generated by its combustible alternatives. When you contribute to this renewable energy Carbon Offset option, you help not only our environment, but also the struggling families that will now receive free, clean heat from the sun.
Offset with Solar:	1 ton $10.00 2 tons $20.00 3 tons $30.00 4 tons $40.00 5 tons $50.00 6 tons $60.00 7 tons $70.00 8 tons $80.00 9 tons $90.00 10 tons $100.00

 

	Clean Cookstoves From fuelwood and emissions studies conducted by independent monitors, each of TWP’s forest-saving, fuel-efficient stoves saves 1.5 tons of carbon emissions per year. Over the stove's minimum projected lifespan of 5 years, that equates to 7.5 tons of carbon.
