Why we should start offsetting first
Reduction takes time and time is something that we do not have!
The moment is now, tomorrow never comes!
There is no perfect solution, only action!
It is really tough for schools to go neutral without offsets. By frontloading your investment in the the future and then reducing you are nmake a difference now.
We must start now
We cannot wait. We are on red alert and schools MUST play their part.
Our missions require it of us
If we truly claim to be interested in the future of our students then there is only one right this to do. Act now.
Benefit from the immediate power of offsets
Great Publicity - attract the families you want
Local media outlets love good news stories. Plus, there is no better news than a great school doing the right thing!
Deepen your relationship with your community
Going carbon neutral is a great way to prove to your community that you care about them and our world.
Lead by example and benefit
The Economic Times reported that 79% of consumers are changing their purchasing preference based on social responsibility and environmental impact. Stay relevant & connected by doing the right thing.
Need to reduce? We’re here for you!
CNSF certification is the first step
Invest in certification and be transparent and accountable to your stakeholders. It always brings benefit.
Join the CNSF to become accredited
CNSF Accreditation is a rigorous but supportive process that allows schools to take the next steps and rationalise their operations, save money and go neutral.
Differentiate yourself
Currently there aren’t many schools that can say that they are carbon neutral, differentiate yourself from your competition.
Find out what others think
“Carbon offset schemes allow individuals and companies to invest in environmental projects around the world in order to balance out their own carbon footprint”
“Carbon offsets are useful while infrastructure and industry make the transition to electric mobility, alternative energy and the new technology is necessary for low- and zero-carbon lifestyles.”
“[The] global potential for action is a big reason that carbon offsets are such a valuable tool to address climate change.”
“Carbon offsetting has benefits at both ends of the process: it helps environmental projects that can’t secure funding on their own, and it gives businesses increased opportunity to reduce their carbon footprint.”
Together we make sustainable change happen
Tree planting and reforestation.
