Your carbon footprint calculation

Whatever we do, the products we produce and consume, the journey to work or simply our homes, everything causes greenhouse gases. This is not a bad thing in itself – but we are now emitting far more than can be absorbed into the atmosphere. This is exactly what leads to global warming. In the fight against climate change, we therefore need to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions.

But in order to know where we can reduce emissions, we first need to know where we are producing them. This is exactly where the calculation of theCO2 footprint comes in and identifies the high-emission stages of the value chain. The calculation is carried out in cooperation with myclimate according to the criteria of the Greenhouse Gas Protocol, the internationally recognized and widely used standard. The calculation distinguishes between three “scopes”, i.e. areas in which the emissions occur.

How is your carbon footprint calculated?

As an international climate protection organization with Swiss roots, we have found a suitable cooperation partner in myclimate to provide our customers with the best solution for the calculation.

We offer your hotel two different packages for yourCO2 balancing including report: Basic and Advanced. In contrast to the Basic package, the Advanced option gives you additional recording options and therefore a more detailed emissions profile.

Application form
The calculation of the carbon footprint forms the basis for their reduction. Suitable measures can now be implemented to avoid and reduce emissions. Some emissions are unavoidable and are called “residual emissions”. The amount of these residual emissions can make a valuable contribution to financing high-quality climate protection projects – in the region or internationally.

Climate protection project

Clean drinking water for schools and households in Uganda

myclimate’s Gold Standard certified carbon offset project promotes access to various water filter technologies for poorer households and institutions such as schools in Uganda. The resulting reduction in the consumption of non-renewable firewood and charcoal reduces theCO2 footprint and also has a positive impact on the living conditions and health of thousands of people.
more about the project
In addition to the project in Uganda, myclimate offers you a choice of other carbon offset projects. These include waste management and compost, biogas, biomass, energy efficiency, land use and forests, and much more.
