Frequently asked questions
How does it work?
Most of our daily activities such as using electricity, transportation, consuming food, buying clothes, using water or disposing waste cause CO2 pollution. This is what we call our “carbon footprint”. And yes, it’s bad for the planet and a big cause of the actual climate change crisis.
Some projects such as planting trees, protecting forests, wildlife and biodiversity or investing in renewable energy among others help reduce the CO2 in the atmosphere and are great way to fight against climate change. GoPositiveNow helps you offset your carbon footprint in an easy and affordable way by supporting some of these hand-picked certified solutions that reduce CO2 in the atmosphere.
