This summer, our planet and communities around the world have suffered from record breaking temperatures and weather events. That’s why we believe our mission of helping individuals and businesses understand, track, reduce, and offset their carbon footprint is more important than ever. We believe everyone has the right to understand their impact and learn the best ways to reduce it. Thank you for supporting our climate action projects!
Impact
Over the past few months, the We Are Neutral team has been hard at work educating individuals and businesses about their environmental impact and reducing polluting carbon emissions from our atmosphere.
Since our last report, we have reduced 5,500 metric tons of carbon emissions! That is equivalent to the greenhouse gas emissions from 1,309 gasoline-powered passenger vehicles driven for one year or the CO2 emissions from 618,882 gallons of gasoline consumed. Additionally, we provided the resources for the planting of 200 mangroves along the coasts of Florida. Mangrove restoration is important for climate change mitigation and adaptation as they have the power to sequester a lot of carbon and protect coastal communities from storm surges.
Our progress doesn’t stop there! Our passionate team of volunteers donated over 100 hours of their time to educate individuals on the importance of climate action and presented ways they could make a difference at an event that hosted thousands of people.
Thank you!
As always, feel free to reach out if you're interested in learning more about how you can better understand, reduce, and offset your carbon footprint. We will continue working hard to shape a more sustainable tomorrow. The work we do is only possible with your support, so thank you for being a part of the solution and tackling climate change with us.
