Carbon Offsets
A Carbon Offset is a certificate representing the reduction of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e) emissions, the principal cause of climate change. Every metric ton (2,205 lbs) of offsets purchased reduces one metric ton of carbon emissions.


How Does Carbon Offsetting Work?
Carbon Offsets support projects that reduce greenhouse gas emissions, including landfill gas capture, farm power, clean energy, and forest management projects. To learn more about the projects that Hertz supports, click here.
