Compensation Co2
Malheureusement, voyager en avion pour étudier à l’étranger augmente l’empreinte carbone de chaque étudiant. Au cours des dernières années, cela est devenu plus évident que jamais : nous sommes confrontés à une crise climatique et le transport aérien est responsable jusqu’à 10 % de la contribution de l’humanité au réchauffement climatique. Cependant, les étudiants doivent-ils cesser de poursuivre leurs rêves d’étudier à l’étranger et sacrifier leurs projets futurs ? Nous ne le pensons pas !
Nous considérons qu’il est de notre responsabilité de préserver notre environnement, de mener une vie durable et de minimiser l’empreinte carbone de chacun de nos étudiants. Par conséquent, Asia Exchange a choisi de collaborer avec Atmosfair, une organisation à but non lucratif qui contribue activement à la réduction de l’émission de CO₂ et propose une compensation du CO2. Vous pouvez désormais facilement faire don de la somme d’argent que vous souhaitez aux projets d’Atmosfair dédiés à la compensation des émissions de Co2.
Au cours du processus de candidature pour votre programme d’études à l’étranger, vous avez la possibilité de faire un don et ainsi de réduire les émissions de votre vol.
Asia Exchange soutiendra simultanément vos efforts pour réduire votre empreinte carbone liée à vos études à l’étranger en contribuant à parts égales : nous doublerons ainsi vos dons.
Faisons de ce monde un endroit meilleur !
