Carbon Calculator

Calculate Your Travel Carbon Footprint

NERC recognizes that the consumption and travel associated with in-person events inevitably generates carbon emissions. To mitigate the environmental footprint of the Spring 2024 Conference and invest in the planet, NERC is offering the opportunity for attendees to purchase carbon offsets from Sustainable Travel International by using the carbon calculator. 

Based on data from NERCs previous events the Sustainable Travel International team was able to provide NERC with the average cost of $10 that attendees could pay in order to help offset their carbon footprint when traveling to NERCs conference. This average amount can be added to your over registration fee, or you can calculate the precise amount in the carbon calculator below.

Use our carbon footprint calculator to calculate your travel emissions and purchase carbon offsets.

 

The carbon offsets purchased by attendees will support Sustainable Travel International’s portfolio of high-quality climate projects that reduce or remove greenhouse gas emissions. This includes a mix of forestry, energy, and blue carbon projects around the world. Sustainable Travel International carefully vets all of their carbon offset projects, supporting only those that are verified by third-party standards to deliver real, measurable emissions reductions. Additionally, Sustainable Travel International seeks out projects that contribute to the UN Sustainable Development Goals by providing community and environmental benefits beyond emissions reductions. For instance, projects may also create local jobs, strengthen indigenous land rights, improve living conditions, or safeguard endangered species.
