carbon offset mechanisms
Carbon offset mechanisms are strategies and initiatives designed to balance or compensate for the emissions of greenhouse gases, primarily carbon dioxide (CO2), released into the atmosphere from human activities. These mechanisms aim to reduce carbon footprints by funding or implementing projects that either avoid or remove an equivalent amount of carbon dioxide emissions elsewhere, neutralizing the overall impact on climate change.
