How to Remove Your Carbon Footprint Properly

How to Remove Your Carbon Footprint Properly

Are you already cleaning your personal carbon footprint?

For individuals, the scientifically accepted approach is simple:

  1. Measure your emissions
  2. Reduce what you can
  3. Remove the rest

But removal is not the same as traditional carbon offsets.

Offsets often focus on avoiding or reducing future emissions.
Carbon removal physically removes CO₂ that is already in the atmosphere and stores it durably.

If you decide to remove your remaining emissions, look for:

  • Ex-post removal (already happened)
  • Independent certification & third-party verification
  • Durable storage (100+ years)
  • Public registry traceability
  • Proof of retirement
