Climate-aware flying with myclimate

By offsetting (= compensating) climate-damaging emissions caused by our international flights to Africa, Asia and Europe!

"Emissions" are health or environmental hazardous chemicals all of us. Each of us produces such pollutants in everyday life, for example when driving a car or on a plane trip. Of the Air travel is the most serious cause and fastest growing Source of greenhouse gases, By flying to your mission abroad, you create climate gases that have a detrimental effect on the environment.

Unlike in the automotive sector, for example, where electric and hybrid vehicles are slowly opening up the market, there is still no climate-friendly alternative solution for air traffic.

myclimate therefore offers the opportunity to make a contribution to climate protection that offsets the CO2 emissions of your flight elsewhere. myclimate calculates the monetary value that corresponds to your environmentally harmful flight emissions and invests this as a Donation to specific, certified climate protection projects.

Since CO2 compensation only really makes a difference if the compensation money directly benefits individual climate protection projects, it guarantees us myclimatethat at least 80 percent of the money actually goes to the individual projects.

myclimate therefore cooperates with around 70 certified and approved climate protection projects in 30 countries cost worldwide. myclimate supports projects that use renewable energies, implement energy efficiency measures and / or reduce methane emissions or greenhouse gases, as well as reforestation and reforestation initiatives.

We at RGV suggest that you offset the greenhouse gases caused by your flight with a climate protection contribution of €35. This roughly corresponds to a return flight from Munich to Kumasi (Ghana) in economy class.

You can under germany.myclimate.org calculate the exact amount of your greenhouse gas emissions and enter it in the comment field "My compensation contribution" when registering for your assignment abroad.

5% of yours myclimate Compensation amount goes directly to one of our environmental projects Tanzania. For the 95% of your donation that goes to myclimate If you agree to your address being passed on, you will automatically receive a donation receipt in January of the following year.
