Offset

Carbon Offsetting

There are broadly two types of carbon markets: compliance and voluntary.

Compliance markets are created by any national, regional, and/or international policy or regulatory requirement. In contrast, Voluntary carbon markets (national and international) refer to the issuance, buying, and selling of carbon credits voluntarily.

CNS focuses mainly on the Voluntary carbon market and is offering sports clubs and fans the possibility of a carbon offset program through projects that remove or avoid emissions by protecting natural ecosystems, facilitating clean, efficient energy use, and building infrastructure (playgrounds, schools, sports facilities, hospitals) to benefit local communities and, therefore, contribute to the achievement of the SDGs.

Climate Neutral Sports is not merely an advocate for carbon neutrality within the sports industry but a catalyst for positive change beyond environmental impact. The organization strategically focuses on offset projects that transcend the singular goal of reducing carbon footprints, ensuring a dual effect on the planet and the communities where these initiatives unfold. By actively participating in the voluntary carbon market, sports clubs and fans align themselves with projects that mitigate global warming and uplift the lives of individuals in the global south. This approach signifies a commitment to holistic sustainability, where the pursuit of environmental equilibrium harmoniously intertwines with social responsibility, creating a meaningful and lasting legacy for both the planet and its inhabitants. Joining the Climate Neutral Sports Movement becomes a transformative act where the love for sports converges with a conscientious effort to build a better, more equitable world.
