Become Carbon Neutral with our NoCO2 Certification

Low CO2 certification

The LowCO2 certification program is designed for businesses who wish to offset a percentage of their carbon emissions immediately with a plan to become carbon neutral over a period of time. The LowCO2 logo displays the percentage reduction so that consumers are aware of the carbon emission reductions initiated by the business.

LowCO2 certified businesses offer their products with a 'Make It Carbon Neutral' choice.



Carbon Neutral Options for Individuals

We offer several options for individuals wishing to calculate and reduce their personal carbon footprint.

Travel, especially car usage and air travel, is one of the biggest contributors to climate change. At the Carbon Reduction Institute, we can help you to reduce and offset the impact of your car and flights. You may also want to choose one of our popular carbon offset gift packs - what better gift is there than neutralising your friends' and family's climate change impact?



You can also lower your carbon emissions by purchasing carbon neutral or low carbon products from carbon neutral businesses and organisations within the Low Carbon Economy. This is a clever way of lowering your own personal carbon footprint and supporting organisations that have taken active steps to reduce their climate change impact and have become carbon neutral certified.
