The Carbon Offset Company utilizes global standards for calculating carbon emissions for our business partners. For offsetting individuals, we go by the average of carbon output of United States of America citizens.

The Carbon Offset Company uses transparent, highly authenticated sources in our carbon offset calculations. For individual offsets, we use the calculations of the average American Citizen based on the research found by ourworldindata.org. This is used to assume an average emission amount of 16.2 tonnes annually or 35,714.9 lbs, equalling 2,976.2 lbs monthly. We then take that and offset it using the data provided by rosian.org., which finds the average offset amount / tree being 679.7 lbs. Breaking down 2,976.2 / 679.7 leads us to have to plant 4.38 trees monthly / monthly subscription and 52.56 trees annually / annual subscription which we round up to 5 and 60 trees respectively, for good measure.

The Carbon Offset Company does not currently plant our own trees but rather supports our 3rd-party verified partners projects. Find out more about our tree planting project assurance standards here. Find out about our certified carbon credit project standards here. However, we are coordinating our own planting site in California for summer of 2021. Contribute to our efforts through various volunteering opportunites, sponsorship, donation and more here.

Our projects are 3rd party verified and the highest of impact possible. Please see our project quality assurance standards here. On top of planting through a network of verified projects, The Carbon Offset Company is setting up planting projects throughout the United States as well, where we will do the actual planting.

Although our tree planting projects are 3rd party verified, they do not allow the ability to receive carbon credits through them. This allows a more cost effective way of adding tree planting into your business model or personal offset goal. Certified carbon credits are most oftenly geared towards large organizations trying to meet carbon emission regulation standards. They are also used by large organizations with the intention of retiring certified carbon credits. Certified carbon credits can be tree planting projects, but can also be forest conservation, cook stove, hydroelectric, wind farm projects and more! Unless you are familiar with certified carbon credits before coming onto our website and specifically have a need for them, we recommend supporting our tree planting projects.
