From what I understand you need to incorporate as an LLC. Then simply design an interactive website which is both attractive and functional and pick projects that you will funnell offset money towards. Example if someone buys a $50 carbon offset. Your company would donate $40 to the fund (growing trees, building a commercial composting site, whatever..) and you would keep the other $10. A Carbon offset company is simply a vehicle by which you drive customers towards a pet project that they would ordinarily have dontated to anyway. You are just providing a service. You touch the money and keep a little for yourself.

How does afforestation offset global warming?

Forests absorb carbon dioxide (CO2) and store the carbon. A company or country emitting CO2 can plant trees to 'offset', or counterbalance their emissions. They may find it cheaper to do this rather than to reduce their emissions. Through afforestation they reduce their carbon footprint, and raise their standing among their peers.


How do you plant paulownia trees using carbon dioxide emission credits?

Any Carbon offset credit project involves a great deal of time, work and expertise. Revenue from Carbon offset credit sales can go towards a Paulownia plantation, but since certification can take 5 years to achieve, some upfront capital is required to start the planting. You will need to conduct a great deal of research before starting the project and have a Carbon expert working with you. One existing Paulownia plantation that is applying for Carbon offset credits is the Princess Project Panama

How much would the carbon tax have to be on a gallon of gasoline to offset the carbon dioxide pollution?

Merely "taxing" gasoline does nothing to offset carbon dioxide "pollution". It might discourage the use of fossil fuels (and therefore discourage economic prosperity, if that's what you want). But in order to "offset" carbon dioxide emissions, the money thus collected has to be SPENT on something that will somehow REMOVE carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. And I haven't heard of anything that the government plans to spend this money on.

What is the difference between carbon credits and Certified emissions rate?

Certified emission rates are a limit on the amount of emissions a company can release into the atmosphere within a given time frame. It is a cap on the emissions itself.Carbon credits looks more at the net carbon emissions. There are companies that plant trees, which reduce the amount of carbon in the air. For their good deeds, they get carbon credits, which they sell to companies that emit carbon. The carbon credits work to offset the actual amount of emissions a company puts out.Note that carbon credits cancel out the emissions, but don't lower emissions at all, unlike a cap on emission rates.

What are greenhouse gas offsets and how do they work?

A carbon offset is a financial tool aimed at a decrease in greenhouse gas emissions. Carbon offsets are measured in metric tons of carbon dioxide-equivalent which can exemplify 6 primary families of greenhouse gas emissions. One carbon offset constitutes the step-down of one tonne of carbonic acid gas or its equal in other greenhouse gases. this text was taken from: www.sofame.com/Carbon-Offsets
