How to offset my carbon footprint

The European Parliament has just approved a law with the purpose of increasing carbon sinks by 15% by 2030 and turning the European Union into the first climate-neutral continent by 2050, thus ensuring the objective of reducing and offsetting the carbon footprint in Spain.

One of the goals set by the government to achieve climate neutrality is to reduce greenhouse gases by at least 23% compared to 1990 levels. Consequently, in 2023, calculating and publishing the carbon footprint will become mandatory for many companies. This initiative aims to ensure that organizations are informed about their actions in combating climate change to meet the targets set by the European Commission.

In the fight against climate change, the first step is to commit to ESG policies. Companies must calculate their carbon footprint and work on a Reduction Plan, in addition to increasing CO2 absorption.

First, to calculate the carbon footprint generated by the company, data on the company’s activity and emission factors must be known. At CO2Revolution, we provide you with a report that will help you make better decisions in your sustainability strategy. You can register the report with MITERD to obtain the “Calculate” seal.

To reduce the climate impact caused by the company’s activities, the main goal is to become carbon neutral. This means that you must offset your carbon footprint through CO2 absorption projects. Some initiatives for this include purchasing carbon credits, investing in reforestation projects, and using renewable energies.

At CO2Revolution, we support you throughout the entire process. To facilitate this effort and help your company become carbon neutral, we offer two actions:

Both projects are registered with the MITERD and you will be able to obtain your own certification endorsed by the Ministry for the Ecological Transition and the Demographic Challenge that allows you to communicate and value the eco-responsible commitment of your company in the face of policies to combat climate change. both internally and externally.
