Planetair

1) To raise the awareness of individuals, corporations, and institutions about how their day-today activities impact upon our global climate.
2) To foster the behavioural changes required to reduce their GHG emissions.
3) To call for actions to offset those GHG emissions that cannot be effectively reduced.

It achieves these objectives in two ways:

1) By developing and funding a GHG emissions offset project portfolio, establishing an economic mechanism to achieve environmental and social objectives.
2) And by certifying activities, events, and organizations as carbon neutral.
