Most greenhouse gas reductions from trees occurs over time, therefore, if you purchase a tree-based offset today, you’re likely to be sponsoring a reduction that won’t be complete until 2050.

The Carbon Offset Scheme limits tree-planting or bio-sequestration to 10% of its project portfolio.

Planting trees provides only a partial answer to the problem of climate change – In our opinion a more appropriate approach is abatement projects that invest in overall emissions prevention.
