If you want to protect the climate you should avoid emitting climate gases such as CO2. But this is simply not enough! That is why you can buy and delete emission certificates from the EU Emissions Trading System (ETS) through TheCompensators.
In so doing, you will reduce the amount of CO2 which can be emitted by European industries, you will protect the environment and ensure that the development of climate-friendly technologies is accelerated.
