The production of many companies was organized a long time ago and not in the best way in terms of the environment. The first step for companies on their way to net zero is to reduce emissions by upgrading equipment, ensuring the transition to renewable energy, etc. However, there is a certain percentage of emissions that cannot be objectively reduced, and this part of emissions could be only compensated for by removing CO₂ from the atmosphere.
Thus, one of the clear choices is to purchase carbon removal certificates from the atmosphere. This process takes place under the supervision of special certification bodies that verify compliance with the contract for the number of tonnes of CO₂ captured and stored, as well as monitor compliance with environmental standards in the process. As a sign of successful completion of the agreement, the buyer receives a certificate indicating the number of tonnes of CO₂ removed from the atmosphere at the expense of the company.
