Offset Your Pet’s Carbon Pawprint By Growing Native Forests 

Pets are an important part of life in Australia, forming an integral part of our families. And while they can be some of the smaller members of the household, they still have a carbon footprint, or pawprint, that has an environmental impact.

You can offset your pet’s carbon emissions through native reforestation with Greenfleet to help them become a responsible environmental citizen. 

What Is The Carbon Footprint Of A Pet? 

The carbon emissions associated with pet ownership change depending on several factors including the type, size and diet of your pet.  

Generally, the most indicative factor is the kind of food you feed your pet. Wet food and red meat have a much higher carbon footprint associated with it than foods such as kibble, or dry food.  

Greenfleet’s Pet Offset is designed as an easy and effective way to offset the average emissions associated with pet ownership. Offsetting your pet’s emissions through native revegetation is a tangible way to reduce the footprint associated with a pet.
