Reduce Emissions with Local Carbon Offsets

Have you been feeling down about your carbon footprint?

Maybe you’ve already made an effort to reduce your carbon footprint through energy efficiency, worked to electrify your home and transportation or added renewables? Or maybe you’re a renter who doesn’t have a choice in the matter?

For those looking to “close the gap” between their net-zero goals and reality, consider purchasing Oneota Tag Carbon Offsets, the first entirely local carbon offset program in Iowa.

These all-local carbon offsets will reduce your carbon footprint, invest in community-wide energy efficiency projects, and boost the local economy by lowering energy bills for those who need it most. Carbon offsets are a way for you to buy “shares” in projects that reduce greenhouse gas emissions somewhere else, thus “offsetting” your own emissions.

Proceeds from the sale of Oneota Tags go toward purchasing supplies including basic weatherization materials that are used locally in the Winneshiek Energy District’s home efficiency programs. These programs save northeast Iowans an estimated 1,646 tons of carbon annually!

There are hundreds of carbon offset companies out there, however we believe the real power of offsets is local and hope you’ll join us in transitioning Winneshiek County towards energy and carbon independence. Purchase Oneota Tag Carbon Offsets and make a difference in your community today!
