CreationCall Briefing:
Carbon Offsetting
March 2023
Summary
Carbon offsetting has often been misused and has a poor reputation. However, rightly used it can be a responsible and effective way to compensate for the carbon footprints of individuals, churches and small businesses, by supporting principled environmental projects in the developing world. We recommend the Climate Stewards offsetting scheme, alongside a systematic plan to reduce carbon emissions.
Introduction
This briefing paper explores how carbon offsetting can be a practical way for Christians to address climate change and express compassion towards developing nations.
It provides a basic overview of carbon offsetting principles, which will help individuals decide if it is a suitable action for them to take and includes links to more detailed information.
