How to offset carbon footprint as a business with two clicks (Carbon Easy Review 2023)
Long story-short:
Carbon Easy is one of the simplest ways for businesses to offset carbon footprint. You can become certified as a green partner by simply selecting your business type, size, and paying a monthly subscription that gets pooled to maximize the impact.
As a small or medium business, it is hard to catch up with everything on your table. I get it, whether it is customers, content creation, marketing plan, or strategy meetings, there’s always something on top of the agenda that makes carbon offsetting a low-priority item.
Minimizing carbon emissions should always be a #1 priority, but no matter how many green practices you implement, producing at least some amount of carbon is practically impossible. This is especially true if you run an online or digital business where most of the carbon emissions are hidden, so it’s easy to overlook at them.
Luckily, Paying Green is bringing a new and simple solution to businesses of any size to easily offset emissions and become a green partner: Carbon Easy (subscription based).

- No lock-in contract. Pay conveniently online with your business’ preferred credit card. Your membership subscription can be canceled at any time at no cost.
- Transparency. Your business is issued with a Carbon Offsetting Certificate stating how many metric tons of carbon emissions were offset by our community with the help of your subscription.
- Certainty. All carbon credits we buy are immediately retired and converted to carbon offsets, meaning they can never be traded again or speculated with.

Offset Carbon Footprint 101
In short, carbon offsetting allows you to compensate for the emissions that you produce by reducing carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases elsewhere. This is accomplished by financially supporting projects that reduce carbon dioxide either by capturing existing CO2 or preventing new emissions from happening.
