David HoGeneral rule: Any company that says it’s carbon neutral is lying.
Martin@davidho Fair enough. Let's celebrate the exceptions. They are? (Genuinely interested in recommendations)
Sören@martin @davidho I think it depends on the market. An air line or energy company isn’t going to be carbon neutral unless it literally doesn’t use oil-based fuel any more.
But, say, a tech company that runs its own data centers that run on renewable energy? That’s probably a lot closer to the goal, realistically.
Aron Roberts@chucker @martin @davidho One reason some data centers are located near hydroelectric generating stations, for instance.
For offsetting household GHG emissions, one option to look at is Wren.co. They’re at least sincerely trying to carefully vet their offsets projects. As a result, most of theirs aren’t the typical “forest protection, afforestation, and/or reforestation” projects one sees widely elsewhere.
