Welcome to the Carbon Offset Guide, developed through a partnership between EPA Victoria and Global Sustainability at RMIT. The Carbon Offset Guide is intended to be a resource for businesses, government agencies, NGOA non-governmental organisation. organisations and individuals seeking information about offsets.
The aim of the website is to provide an independent directory of Australian carbon offset providers. It is hoped this will improve the understanding of the offset market by Australian businesses, as well as the broader community, and facilitate better environmental and economic outcomes.
The guide was developed during 2007 and will be updated every 3 months. Find out more about the website or the partnership.
EPA Victoria and Global Sustainability at RMIT both regard carbon offsets as only one part of any strategy to deal with greenhouse gas emissions. Although offsets can help provide much-needed investment to emission reduction and sequestration projects, in many cases looking at avoiding or reducing on-site emissions can have better financial and environmental outcomes.
