Even if we change our lives to be more sustainable it is difficult to reduce our carbon emissions to the level that is necessary. One solution to this is to start climate compensating. Donate or invest in sustainable companies that commit to carbon drawdown and fulfill the “gold standard” for climate compensation. Do a test to see how much carbon you need to reduce and donate in according to this. We can recomend climate hero for this. Climate compensation will have a great impact on the environment, however it is important to not see this as something that will let you “get away with” living unsustainably.  Climate compensation is only a short term solution while changing to a sustainable lifestyle is a long term one.
