Carbon offsets are the certified reduction of one metric ton (2,205 lbs) of carbon dioxide emissions, provided through the funding of greenhouse gas reducing projects around the world. They are designed to offset the carbon dioxide emissions from our everyday actions, such as driving, flying, and the use of electricity. Toggle purchases (at no extra cost to our customers) carbon offsets to help offset the estimated miles driven in a policy term.
