About Atmosfair
Atmosfair is a German non-profit organization created in 2005 and that actively contributes to CO₂ mitigation by developing offsetting programs worldwide and designing software tools as their Emissions calculator to assist businesses in executing their climate policies.
Atmosfair cooperates with the travel sector worldwide (with tour operators, airlines, airports, travel agencies etc.) in order to help companies with many business trips, from preparing a comprehensive CO₂ report of their travels to tailored measures in travel management.
Their work ethic is based on the following principle: only compensate what can’t be avoided or reduced. Indeed, offsetting cannot solve the problem of climate change since it does nothing to change the actual source of CO₂. It is a necessary second-best solution as long as the best solution does not yet exist.
Atmosfair has recently built the world’s first plant to supply carbon-neutral fuel for commercial aviation. The electricity for their plant comes exclusively from wind turbines and solar installations in order to extract CO₂ directly from the atmosphere. The extracted CO₂ but also hydrogen are the raw materials which are processed into kerosene. More information here.
