To offset our emissions, Australian Ethical is utilizing carbon credits in worthwhile projects, which will offset 149.5 tCO2-e during FY15. The total emissions, which include greenhouse gases from energy and travel, will be offset by replacement projects in Mali and Cambodia. These projects replace highly polluting traditional cookstoves with fuel efficient stoves, which require large quantities of wood and charcoal, leading to desertification. Additionally, traditional stoves also contribute to indoor air pollution, which is linked to respiratory and eye diseases.
