ProJet Aviation has joined forces with TerraPass, Inc. to offer carbon offsets to private aircraft travelers. ProJet clients can elect to purchase carbon offsets to balance the carbon emissions generated from their flights. TerraPass works with clean energy and carbon emissions reduction projects throughout the U.S., including wind power, farm power, and landfill gas capture. Credits are verified against a broadly accepted standard by an independent third party.

“For about 1% of the cost of the trip, our clients can sponsor reductions in greenhouse gas emissions elsewhere,” explains ProJet’s CEO, Shye Gilad. “ProJet is taking internal steps to reduce our own carbon footprint, and we are happy to provide our clients with the same opportunity.” ProJet provides the carbon offset cost for each flight so their clients can make their own choice.
Participation in the program is voluntary.

TerraPass reports that more than 150,000 purchases of carbon offsets have been made by individuals, families, and businesses who are balancing out the global impact of their travel, home or office energy use. Together, TerraPass and its partners have funded reductions of over 1 billion pounds of carbon dioxide emissions.
