About this Event
In the US, the average carbon emissions per person, per year is the equivalent of 3.7 passenger cars. That’s a pretty big carbon footprint. After you’ve bought the hybrid and changed out all the incandescent light bulbs what else can you or your company do to get your footprint to zero? Have you wondered what Renewable Energy Credits (RECs), Carbon Offsets & Water Restoration Certificates (WRCs) really are? How are they developed? How are they tracked and verified? In this luncheon, our speaker will answer these questions and more. Come prepared to learn the details of these products and bring your questions to understand how they can help you in your sustainability efforts. Calculate, Conserve, and Offset.
