A carbon footprint is the entire amount of greenhouse gases (such as carbon dioxide and methane) produced by human actions. According to pawprint.eco, the average carbon footprint per person in the UK is 12.7 tonnes of CO2 per year, and in the US, it's 21 tonnes.
By 2050, the average worldwide carbon footprint per year must fall to under 2 tonnes per person in order to have the best chance of preventing an increase in global temperatures of 2°C.
Worldwide greenhouse gas emissions have escalated to record levels. Without action to reverse this trend, the consequent rise in global temperature has the potential to lead to catastrophic climate change.
The UN Paris Agreement agreed to limit warming to 1.5°C, which requires significant changes across the global economy.DGB's carbon offset projects are independently audited and certified by VCS or the Gold Standard in accordance with their guidelines. Mitigating climate change requires reducing carbon emissions. When you offset your footprint, you neutralise your emissions by protecting forests that absorb large amounts of carbon from the atmosphere. Start measuring your carbon footprint now as the first step towards a positive impact by answering a few simple questions about your business.
Calculate your carbon footprint, evaluate which aspects of your daily activities you can modify to reduce your carbon footprint, and offset unavoidable emissions.
Many of our daily activities—such as using electricity, driving a car, or disposing of waste—cause emissions. Together these emissions make up a business' carbon footprint.
Every organisation's carbon footprint is different depending on its location, habits, and personal choices. To calculate your carbon footprint, we use the answers to your questions and combine that information with corporate standard statistics taken from Greenhouse Gas Protocol. DGB's CO2.Expert carbon calculator is free and easy to use.
Identifying your carbon emissions directly benefits your business as your company analyses how much energy and resources your operations consume and where there is potential for cost and resources savings.

DGB has a strong project pipeline of nature-based projects worldwide, generating income from carbon offsets. Take a look at the projects we're successfully running with landowners and investors.
The Bulindi Chimpanzee Habitat Restoration project aims to rapidly restore the declining chimpanzee habitat in Bulindi, Uganda, through active afforestation and community involvement.
The project has multiple locations, however, most of the trees are planted in three villages in the Yoko Sub Division in the Centre Region of Cameroon, spanning an area of 2,300–3,000 hectares.
DGB focuses on manufacturing and distributing energy-efficient, locally-manufactured cookstoves to people in this project, improving their health and decreasing deforestation.
