It is generally acknowledged that human activities are leading to global warming..
Carbon Dioxide is the most important of the greenhouse gases that are increasingly trapping solar heat and warming the
global climate. Flying is the most carbon intensive way to travel. Aviation at present accounts for 3 % of greenhouse
gases and generates nearly as much carbon dioxide in one year as the total population of Africa.
The calculator below gives an idea of how much you might donate to plant trees that will help soak up
carbon or to support fuel efficiency projects. As trees in different parts of the world and in different conditions,
assimilate carbon at different rates, this can only be a rough guide. The calculation is based upon how much carbon
an acre of rainforest can soak up.
All of your donation will go towards the projects we support.
