Carbon Offsetting with Renewable World
If you are concerned about the carbon dioxide emitted by traveling to a RenewableUK conference, please compensate for your emissions when registering by supporting the renewable energy programmes of Renewable World, RenewableUK's chosen charity.
Renewable World develops community-managed, small scale renewable energy projects in developing countries that address energy poverty and do not contribute to climate change.
- Delegate traveling within the UK = £5
For the cost of £5 you can compensate for an average return flight within the UK or up to 500 miles return journey in a standard petrol car. - Delegate traveling from outside the UK = £10
For the cost of £10 you can compensate for a return flight to the UK of up to 1000 miles. - The price of compensating for one tonne of carbon dioxide is set at £27.60 which is based on the shadow price of carbon, an estimated value of the damage caused by one tonne of carbon dioxide, calculated independently by the British Government.
