All websites emit carbon dioxide, both via the power used by the company’s servers that host the websites and via visitor’s computers and screens. That is why we have chosen to support the CO2 Neutral Website project, because it ensures us that the traffic on our website leaves no negative traces.
Through the project we compensate for our CO2 emission by purchasing CO2 quotas which are then cleared with the Danish Energy Agency.
By supporting the CO2 Neutral Website project, Kohsel also supports CO2-reducing projects around the world. All the projects are approved by The Gold Standard, supported by WWF, which is the most rigorous certification standard globally for carbon offset projects.
