Carbon Offsets
Are you committed to lowering your carbon footprint? We are. So we're making Renewable Energy Certificates available to purchase from 3 Degrees, Inc. for you to offset your travel to the conference and to help us lessen LF09’s carbon footprint. If you decided to purchase your own offsets during registration, follow the instructions below, using the provided carbon calculator to calculate your offset needs.
1. This calculator is set up to calculate the carbon footprint of your lifestyle. If now is not the appropriate time for calculating your entire lifestyle's carbon production and you'd rather just calculate your carbon for this conference, we suggest that you skip Home Electricity and just calculate either your Car Travel or Air Travel - whichever is appropriate for you.
2. In order to calculate your Car Travel for just this conference, determine your total mileage to and from the conference and divide it by 12. That result will be the number you will enter in the "Miles per Month" box.
