The SL Carbon Offset Exchange allows you to offset your ‘carbon footprint’ that your virtual life leaves in the real world.
Want to know more about your carbon footprint and how carbon offsets help to reduce the CO2 and other greenhouse gasses on the planet? Just grab some of the informational notecards located on the green walls from our office. They will provide you much of the information you will need to see why it is important to work together to offset the impact our second life has on our first life.
We provide offsets to match the size of your land and your avatar. Whether you have a start lot of 512 square meters or a full sim, we have broken down the offset to fit your needs. A single sim creats approximately 1.7 tonnes of CO2 to operate over the course of a year. This shows just how much of an impact we can all have.
Verified, Audited and Registered.
These Carbon offset credits represent legal polution rights retired from the Chicago Climate Exchange. These are the same carbon offsets purchased by the US House of Representatives as part of the “Greening the Capitol” initiative, the State of New Mexico, Rolls Royce, American Electric Power, and scores of other Fortune 500 companies. We believe that this is the most credible way in the United States that you can offset your C02 emissions.
So if you have a small lot or multiple sims, join us in doing your part to help reduce the green house gas that is effecting ALL of us on OUR planet. We only have one so we have to work together to make it last.
Don’t own any land? Well the servers that run you Avatar are causing the same pollution as the land servers are so we have made it VERY EASY for you to offset your carbon footprint. Just join the SL CARBON OFFSET EXCHANGE group. There is a joining fee of 400L FOR AN ENTIRE YEAR that goes to the procurement and retirement of the carbon offset equivilant for the carbon footprint your avatar leaves behind.
