Stripe Climate VS Watershed

Offset your emissions 2x with carbon sequestration. Note: not carbon offsets, pay for actual sequestration: this is a useful resource https://stripe.com/climate - note that carbon sequestration is orders of magnitude more expensive than carbon offsets because it actually accounts for the cost of putting that carbon in the ground.
