    What are some attributes of an offset that you should consider before purchasing them?

    Purchasing an offset is a way for someone to lessen their carbon foot print. It's a way of "paying off" your carbon consumption while not contaminating anymore. Before you do purchase one, you need to take into account the fact that carbon offsettings are more of a sticking plaster than a cure. We need  to reduce our emissions drastically  and offsetting alone won't achieve that.
