The process of becoming Carbon Neutral is a balance between offsetting and reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

Emissions reduction can have benefits on several levels, processes like energy efficiency, process optimisation and upstream/downstream demand management reduce greenhouse gas emissions and input costs at the same time.

If significant re-tooling of your operation isn’t suitable then we can help you focus on “low hanging fruit” aspects such as office power, waste and water use, as well as travel, logistics and transport rationalisation.

Often businesses wishing to maintain business as usual will focus more on offsetting, and this is by no means a second-best option.

Offsetting emissions means that your business still has no net effect on the atmosphere, and your offsets serve to support projects like reforestation or shifting the worlds power generation fleet towards sustainable energy. The costs for offsetting vary depending on the types of offsets used and range between $2 and $10 per ton offset.

DYB broker offsets from a range of providers at 0% commission and we’re happy to help you choose those that best suit your needs. As we don’t take a profit on emissions offsets you know we only broker the number of offsets you really need.

Once you’ve established Carbon Neutral status DYB can provide a recognition label so your products/firm is recognisable as Carbon Neutral.

DYB will also advise on exactly what being Carbon Neutral means, and what you can claim in publicity and related areas (DYB provides a comprehensive ISO 14064-compliant report which details your firm’s carbon status and the basis for claiming to be Carbon Neutral).
