Flight Carbon Offset

Paul travels a lot! That means jet planes taking him every where he goes, leaving significant carbon emissions in their wake. We invest in carbon offsets, so that Paul’s flights have zero impact on the atmosphere. Its the right thing to do. Global air travel causes approximately 2% of the world’s carbon emissions. For every flight taken, we purchase offsets from Less, a Gold Certified internationally recognized program.
