Carbon offsets: how does it work?
• Emissions trading was agreed upon in 1997 in Kyoto, Japan as one the main elements of the United Nations Kyoto Protocol
• Governments set the limits, or caps, on how much carbon dioxide companies can emit. If firms go above these, they must buy permits to do so
• The credits are bought from companies or individuals who carry green projects
How does Africa Our Home trade its credits?
1. Plant teak trees
2. Request Green Project Permit from the government
3. Propose carbon credits to Africa Our Home clients
4. 1 ton of C02 = 1 carbon credit
