OffSet Your Emissions
Working in such wonderful environments in the Alps, we would like to offer you the opportunity to give something back to our environment.
If you would like to offset the carbon emissions associated with your holiday
through Kaluma Travel, you can do that through our partner offsetting company,
Carbon Retirement.
Carbon Retirement uses customers' money to buy carbon allowances out
of the EU Emission Trading Scheme. This is the EU's central tool for
cutting carbon emissions. It works by giving heavy industry a fixed
number of allowances to emit carbon dioxide.
Each time Carbon Retirement buys an allowance on behalf of a customer,
it is cancelled, or 'retired'. Retirement permanently removes
allowances from the market so they are unavailable to the industries
that would otherwise use them as rights to pollute. By offsetting your
travel with Carbon Retirement you reduce the number of rights to emit
carbon dioxide that are available to heavily polluting industries in Europe.
Have a look at www.carbonretirement.com to find out more and to offset your emissions.
