Carbon Positive KC
Carbon Positive KC is an initiative that encourages awareness and action to address climate change. The program offers a way for you to offset your personal carbon footprint by investing in verified national and international projects, with a portion of the investment contributing to local projects and local green education.
How it works: you complete an assessment to determine your household’s carbon footprint (based on your travel, energy costs, gasoline usage, etc.). Commit to a monthly fee schedule, with the investment offsetting your greenhouse gas emissions. You already pay to have your trash picked up, why not pay to clean up your carbon trash? And if you can be carbon neutral (net zero emissions) why not become carbon positive (removing more CO2 than you produce)?
