In this episode of Eco Echoes, Sheldon and Amer explore the world of carbon offsets. They break down the basics of what carbon offsets are and how they work, as well as the various types of offsets available, such as forestry projects and renewable energy credits. They also examine how carbon offsets are used in Canada by both businesses and government initiatives, and discuss the controversies and effectiveness of offsets in reducing global emissions. 

Tune in to learn more about the role of carbon offsets in Canada's national climate strategy and the ongoing debate surrounding their future impact on the environment.
