Earn Offsets

Earn Carbon Offsets!

Effective action on global warming means we all need to participate. Your individual or household carbon account is:

  • Equitable: The carbon markets are attracting the world's largest companies. Let's keep it democratic!
  • Effective: Our participation will help us all enjoy social and environmental benefits
  • Risk-tolerant: More players in the market means that there are more chances fo us to achieve the emissions reductions we need
  • Transparent: Keeping individuals as active participants will keep the markets transparent
  • Collaborative (and Competitive!): It's much easier to change your behavior when you are doing it with friends and family

Our Earned Offsets program provides an opportunity for you to earn offsets by sharing your carbon footprint online.

The more you share your footprint, the more chances you will have of earning offsets!

  • Bank these offsets for a trip, a vacation or a roadtrip
  • Earn enough offsets for your whole carbon footprint next year
  • Redeem your earned offsets for products in our store (coming soon!)

Saving money and the planet is easy. Here is how it works:

  1. Calculate your carbon footprint
  2. Buy offsets to balance it out
  3. Share your footprint using any one of the options provided by ShareThis
  4. Let your friends review your footprint (we know, it might be hard)
  5. Hopefully, they are intrigued, and choose to calculate their carbon footprint and offset it through LittleCarbonFeet.com
  6. We will allocate 5% of their offset purchase to your offset account.
  7. You can use these offsets after our money-back guarantee period is over - it is that easy.

All you have to do is share your footprint with others once you have offset your carbon footprint. We will keep track of the rest and show your account balance when you log in through Clickpass. The more offsets your friends and family purchase, the more you are rewarded.
