ECO Can Help!
-
What is sustainability, and why is it important?Sustainability is the practice of meeting our current needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet theirs. It encompasses environmental, social, and economic factors, aiming for a healthy planet, thriving communities, and a prosperous future. By adopting sustainable practices, we ensure a world where resources are used responsibly and environmental damage is minimized.
-
What are carbon credits, and how can they help?Carbon credits represent a reduction of one ton of carbon dioxide or its equivalent greenhouse gas emissions. Businesses or organizations that emit carbon can purchase credits from projects that actively remove greenhouse gasses from the atmosphere, like reforestation initiatives. This helps offset their emissions and contributes to a net reduction in carbon footprint.
-
How does deforestation contribute to climate change?Forests play a crucial role in capturing and storing carbon dioxide. When trees are cut down, this stored carbon is released back into the atmosphere, accelerating climate change. Deforestation also disrupts ecosystems, leading to biodiversity loss and soil erosion.
