And just like that, we have officially reached the end of The Finance Burrtio’s Sustainability Series. Boo! But like always, we’re going to go out with a bang. Since Liv is still on her Tasmanian travels, you again get to be soothed by my delightful voice...and learn all about carbon offsetting.

Tom and I will chat about what exactly carbon offsetting is, how companies offset our emissions and some of the controversy that surrounds the initiative, drama!

But to really get a grip on the whole carbon offsetting thing, we chatted to Powershop’s Chief Customer Officer, Catherine Anderson. We’ll discuss why Powershop decided to start offering carbon offsetting programs to their customers and the cost involved to do so. Plus Catherine shares why she thinks carbon offsetting has gotten a bad reputation in the media.

What’s your stance on carbon offsetting? Give us the tea by joining our Facebook page or sending us a message on Instagram!
