Offsetting Certificates
- Offsetting certificates are issued by us on the basis of the number of offsets you have selected or the
carbon dioxide equivalent emissions calculated from the data provided by you.

in your application form. We have not verified the data you provided and we do not warrant the accuracy of any claims made by you.
