Understand the Power of Carbon Offsets

What is a Carbon Offset?

As property managers, your efforts directly impact the communities you serve and the planet we all share. Carbon offsets are a powerful tool in your arsenal to make a positive environmental impact. But what exactly are carbon offsets, and how do they work? Let's break it down.

A carbon offset represents the reduction, removal, or prevention of one metric ton of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from entering our atmosphere. These offsets are typically generated from projects that either absorb CO2 (like reforestation or afforestation), prevent future emissions (like renewable energy projects), or reduce existing emissions (like energy efficiency projects), and can be used to offset the emissions generated from your properties’ electricity and gas consumption.

Carbon Footprints

When you join Green Room, we calculate the carbon footprint of your buildings using real-time data analytics of your electricity and natural gas consumption. This footprint represents the total amount of greenhouse gases your properties emit.

We erase your carbon footprint using carbon offsets generated by high-quality verified projects through our partner, ClimatePartner. These projects adhere to rigorous standards such as the Gold Standard or the Verified Carbon Standard, ensuring their environmental integrity. The purchase of these offsets effectively neutralizes your properties' carbon emissions, making them carbon neutral.

Why Choose Carbon Offsets?

Carbon offsets are a pragmatic and effective way to reduce your environmental impact. While reducing energy consumption through efficiency measures is crucial, it's currently impossible to completely eliminate emissions. That's where carbon offsets come in - they allow you to take responsibility for your unavoidable emissions and invest in projects that are helping our planet.

Green Room’s Services

By partnering with Green Room, you're investing in a comprehensive carbon neutrality program for your properties. We guide you through every step of the process, from initial footprint calculation, to the purchase and retirement of carbon offsets, to verification of your carbon neutrality. Our partnership with ClimatePartner ensures your offsets come from high-quality, verified projects.
