We know we have an impact, and we have to cheat to say that we are “climate neutral” we use offsetting methods to compensate for our emissions. We do this by supporting projects that will hopefully avoid and reduce emissions faster than we do. This feels a little bit like cheating but since it’s the best option we have right now. We are continuously working with reducing our emissions and our climate footprint. All climate compensations our done together with Zero Mission In certified projects.
