          How to become
          carbon-neutral with DGB

          We believe in the power of businesses to drive positive change and protect the planet. DGB helps businesses measure, reduce, and compensate for their carbon footprint so they can achieve their net-zero goals through ecosystem restoration and become carbon neutral.

          Net-zero emissions

          What is carbon neutrality?

          Carbon neutrality means having a net-zero carbon dioxide emissions footprint. This is achieved by implementing carbon-reduction strategies and offsetting emissions (with carbon credits) that cannot be reduced. When a business becomes carbon neutral, it not only demonstrates a commitment to environmental responsibility, but also improves the business’ brand reputation and helps it connect with consumers who care about sustainability.

          Good for the planet and for business

          In an increasingly environmentally conscious world, your environmental impact matters. And, it's an opportunity. Becoming carbon neutral is not just the right thing to do—it's also good for business. Here's why: 

          Why becoming carbon neutral is beneficial?

          Attract investment

          Investors increasingly consider environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors when making investment decisions. By demonstrating a commitment to sustainability, businesses can differentiate themselves from their competitors and attract investment from responsible investors.

          Reduce costs

          By becoming more sustainable and changing your business' behaviour towards energy consumption and emission-producing activities, you decrease inefficiencies and operational costs, thus, increasing your revenue, efficiency, and competitiveness.

          Engage customers

          Consumers are becoming more conscious of the environmental impact of the products they buy and are willing to pay a premium for eco-friendly options. By becoming carbon neutral, businesses demonstrate their commitment to sustainability and connect with consumers who share their values.
