All campus offices can now purchase high-quality carbon offsets easily and at a great rateÌýthrough the Environmental Center's new service. In order to centralize efforts in mitigating climate footprints, any campus department can purchase carbon offsets for travel, conferences, day-to-day use, employee commuting or large purchases.Ìý

We have made the process easy for even first-time buyers.Ìý.ÌýThe Environmental Center will compile purchases monthly and purchase carbon offsets for you through their preferred vendor, currentlyÌýNative Energy.

We have thoroughly vetted carbon-offset vendors, ensuring they are high-quality, third-partyÌýcertified offsets with social equity benefits and educational potential, as well asÌýconsideredÌýcost and location.ÌýPurchasing through this new service also means we can aggregate and track campus carbon offset purchasing, while benefiting from a great bulk rate with Native Energy.ÌýBy purchasing together, we canÌýincreaseÌýour impact!
