Carbon Emissions
Did you know?
The average Canadian household emits 4 tonnes of CO2 by using natural gas? That’s equivalent to driving an extra 16,000 KM annually in a typical, gas-powered car.
Carbon emissions are the major contributor to climate change and we take climate change as seriously as our community does. Carbon offsets are created when projects are undertaken to permanently reduce greenhouse gas emissions such as building retrofits, reduced consumption of fossil fuels, or the displacement of non-renewables into energy sources such as wind and solar.
Doing our part for a greener tomorrow!
Offset Ontario has till now helped over 20,000+ households to minimize their carbon emissions. We are community driven and passionate about sustainable environment. Investing on a daily basis into reducing the carbon footprints of Ontarians, creating awareness and HVAC solutions that help offset such emissions.
Our Projects
Essex‐Windsor Regional Landfill Gas Capture and Destruction Project
Essex‐Windsor Regional Landfill Gas Capture and Destruction Project
Essex‐Windsor Regional Landfill Gas Capture and Destruction Project
Landfill gas is collected from twenty‐three vertical wells and drawn to a plant where it is ignited and burned continuously. The project uses a fully enclosed flare for methane destruction. The main gas released from municipal solid waste is methane greenhouse gas with 20 times the global warming potential of carbon dioxide.

Great Bear Forest Carbon Project
Essex‐Windsor Regional Landfill Gas Capture and Destruction Project
Essex‐Windsor Regional Landfill Gas Capture and Destruction Project
Forest areas that were previously designated, sanctioned or approved for commercial logging. The Project protects and increases carbon stocks by ensuring the trees remain and reduces emissions caused by harvesting, road building and other forestry operations. It is a landmark project for balancing human well-being and ecological integrity through carbon finance, and is the first carbon

Darkwoods Forest Carbon Project
Essex‐Windsor Regional Landfill Gas Capture and Destruction Project
Darkwoods Forest Carbon Project
Located in the Selkirk Mountains, the Darkwoods Forest Carbon Project is an Improved Forest Management project moving from a logging baseline scenario to a protected forest. The increase in carbon stocks over time is a result of the decrease in logging activities resulting from the new management scenario. With their lush valleys, rugged peaks, tumbling creeks and deep lakes, British
