How can you offset
your emissions?

Carbon offsetting is easy, and we have the tools to help you. With DGB, you can start to measure your carbon emissions and develop a plan to offset your negative impact with carbon offsets.

Step 1

Calculate your carbon footprint

The first step in compensating for your carbon emissions is understanding how much emissions you are responsible for. Our carbon footprint calculator is easy to use and will provide a clear picture of your carbon impact. By answering a few simple questions, you'll get a personalised report showing how much you can reduce your carbon footprint.

Step 2

Offset your carbon footprint

Now that you know your carbon footprint, you can compensate for your emissions by purchasing carbon offsets from us. Our carbon offsets come from trees that we plant on your behalf. We work with local communities and organisations to plant trees where they are needed most. This way, you can be sure that your purchase is making a positive impact.

Restoring the environment

Why we are planting trees

Planting trees is an effective way to sequester carbon from the atmosphere and help improve the planet's health. To reach global net-zero goals, we must combat deforestation and increase Earth’s tree coverage. DGB is committed to making this happen, and you can be part of this impactful effort. Our transparent tree-planting programme allows you to offset your carbon footprint with a precise number of trees, so you know exactly how much you contribute to the environment.

Your purchase also supports our efforts to improve biodiversity, protect wildlife habitats, and promote sustainable land-use practices. By offsetting your emissions with us, you're supporting a brighter future for generations.

Achieving your goals through nature

Start your sustainability journey

If you want to do more than plant trees or want to reduce your business' carbon footprint, we can help. Once your carbon footprint (or your business’) is mapped, we can use this information to create a detailed carbon reduction and compensation plan that addresses your sustainability and net-zero goals. Our Impact Consultants will work with you to understand your business needs and develop a strategy that both reduces your carbon footprint and compensates for emissions that cannot be avoided or reduced.

In addition to planting trees to compensate for your emissions, you can purchase verified carbon credits generated from our nature-based projects. By purchasing a carbon credit, you are responsible for one less tonne of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Buyers of carbon credits will be guaranteed that their investment results in a measurable reduction or removal of carbon dioxide that would not otherwise have happened without the project. Our projects are large-scale, sustainably managed projects that focus on the restoration of nature.
