These GHGs, as major atmospheric pollutants, are the main drivers of global warming. To offset these emissions, projects are financed that aim to reduce or avoid additional GHG production, such as those related to renewable energy, energy efficiency, or reforestation.  By investing in such projects, it is possible to offset a quantity of GHG emissions equivalent to that produced by a specific activity (for example, an airplane trip). In this way, the activity in question achieves a state of \u201ccarbon neutrality\u201d, meaning it does not produce a net impact on the climate.  To ensure the integrity and effectiveness of this approach, Planetair supports Gold Standard certified projects. This certification guarantees that the projects are of high quality and that the GHG emission reductions are tangible, sustainable, and rigorously verified.","thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/planetair.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/planetair-compenser.png","thumbnail_width":1391,"thumbnail_height":692}
