Flight Carbon Offset
Price range: $8.00 through $80.00
Travel is an important part of life, but it also comes with a carbon footprint. 1,000 miles of air travel generates about 500 lbs of carbon emissions per passenger, based on government data from the US EIA and US FAA.
You can offset your air travel by purchasing carbon credits that support the Terrapass Global Portfolio, a diverse mix of projects across the world that restore natural climate resilience, protect critical ecosystems, and reduce climate super-pollutants. Every carbon credit you purchase is an independently verified carbon removal or reduction generated by these projects under the supervision of ICVCM CCP-Eligible registries like Verra, American Carbon Registry or Climate Action Reserve.
You receive a Certificate of Purchase displaying your contribution to reducing global carbon emissions and Terrapass retires carbon credits for your purchase.
