What is Carbon Offsetting for the Prevention of Global Warming in which We can Participate?

Greenhouse gases are considered to be the cause of global warming. Of these, CO2 (carbon dioxide) is considered to have the most significant impact.
What should we do to reduce CO2 emissions and prevent global warming?
Let's consider a conversation between new employee A and more senior employee B.

In response to customers with a high degree of interest in protecting the environment and preventing global warming, we now offer "JAL Carbon Offsets" as a means of offsetting the CO2 emissions from flying on our aircraft.

Projects that are eligible for this support are among the most reliable in the world, being certified by the United Nations under the United Nations Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) as set out in the Kyoto Protocol.
The JAL Group work together with Recycle One Inc. (The Japanese branch of the world's largest carbon offset company, Carbon Neutral, in the UK) in the provision of carbon offsets.

You can participate in the "JAL Carbon Offset" program to prevent global warming by clicking on the "Calculate CO2" button.

  1. These carbon offsets aim to reduce CO2 emissions through the voluntary participation of our customers.
