Carbon Offsets

Reduce Your Carbon Footprint

Carbon Credits Provide Cash Incentives and Environmental Benefits for the Recovery and Destruction of CFCs.

Used CFCs found in any condition, or mixed with other refrigerants can be turned into cash; and with the additional benefit of protecting the environment!    

The California Air Resources Board (ARB) has formally released a Destruction of Ozone Depleting Substances (ODS) Protocol, that provides a standardized approach for quantifying and monitoring Green House Gas (GHG) reductions, from projects that destroy ODS with high global warming potential. Specifically, the ARB Protocol adopted October 20, 2011 provides incentives for the destruction of R11, R12, R13, R113, R114 and R115 with the caveat that these gases were previously used in refrigerant applications, or are from virgin stockpiles. Other CFCs recovered from foam building insulation and from appliance insulation are also eligible. The protocol is available by clicking here.

“The current market value of these offset credits not only covers all the costs of destruction, but also provides cash incentives to contractors and end users who are willing to recover these refrigerants and send them to an approved recycling facility that is recognized by ARB as a site that can convert these CFCs to verified carbon credits."
