Carbon Offsetting<br />
Provider: <strong>HSBC</strong> Group Corporate Sustainability<br />
• Are you concerned about the impact of carbon emissions on the environment?<br />
• Do you know the size of your own carbon footprint?<br />
• Do you want <strong>to</strong> offset your carbon footprint and simultaneously support clean<br />
energy projects?<br />
use the my reward<br />
web<strong>site</strong> <strong>to</strong> select<br />
your my choice<br />
benefits. it’s quick<br />
and easy.<br />
Through <strong>My</strong> <strong>Choice</strong>, you have the opportunity <strong>to</strong> make regular contributions <strong>to</strong> offset<br />
all, or part of, your carbon footprint. Each carbon offset equates <strong>to</strong> one <strong>to</strong>nne of carbon<br />
dioxide avoided and costs £5 per offset for the <strong>My</strong> <strong>Choice</strong> year. To put this in perspective,<br />
the average UK home emits 10 <strong>to</strong>nnes of carbon dioxide each year.<br />
You must select a minimum of two offsets for the <strong>My</strong> <strong>Choice</strong> year, but there is no limit<br />
<strong>to</strong> the number of offsets you can select, subject <strong>to</strong> the overall limits applicable <strong>to</strong><br />
<strong>My</strong> <strong>Choice</strong>. If you select this benefit, the cost of your carbon offset will be spread over a<br />
12-month period.<br />
For example, if you select 10 units the monthly cost will be (£5 x 10 units) / 12 months =<br />
£4.17 per month.<br />
