The aviation industry generates CO₂ emissions that contribute to climate change. The Impulse Jets carbon offset program in association with ClimateCare endeavours to both reduce carbon emissions and support humanitarian development programs, thus improving the environment and society. Offsetting of carbon emissions is included in every Impulse Jets flight.

1. Carbon offset – Included in every flight.
2. Emissions calculation – Carried out by the Impulse Jets team based on aircraft type and size, and fight duration.
3. Purchase – Carbon offset payment is included in the cost of the flight and marked as “Carbon Offset”.
4. Offset implementation – Alleviate poverty ClimateCare offsets the carbon emissions through projects that cut carbon, alleviate poverty, and provide humanitarian relief.

The ClimateCare projects are set out by the UN’s Clean Development Mechanism and follow international standards for emission reductions. Please visit ClimateCare for information on carbon offset projects. The projects deliver considerable climate and sustainable development impacts around the world, and include fuel-efficient stoves, water filters, and renewable energy. ClimateCare have contributed to a reduction of around 45 million tonnes of CO₂ and improved 42 million lives around the world in the past 20 years.

We are working with 4AIR, a rating system for the commitment to sustainability for aviation companies. Through our sustainability program we commit to every flight booked via Impulse Jets and our facilities being at least 4AIR Level 2 rated – Carbon and Emission Neutral and 300% carbon offset. Working with 4AIR, we have selected a portfolio of carefully-chosen projects in which Impulse Jets is focusing our offsetting activity across the world – with activities ranging from forestry programs, to cookstoves, to renewable energy.

Carbon offsetting is a reduction in emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) or other greenhouse gases. Impulse Jets flights are 300% carbon offset. CO2 emissions alone only account for 1/3 of the impact on the environment from flying, which is why Impulse Jets’ sustainability program is also emission neutral.

Therefore, Impulse Jets is carbon neutral, including all flights and facilities and in fact is emission neutral, offsetting all flights 300%, to account for other, non-CO2 emissions.

Emission Neutral looks beyond carbon offsetting and offsets other aviation emissions, including water vapour, aerosols, and nitrous oxide – which account for 2/3 of the emissions produced when flying. Impulse Jets offsets 300% of carbon emissions to cover these other emissions.

Every flight booked through Impulse Jets is 300% carbon offset (and emission neutral) as standard.

Clients are given the opportunity to opt out of the Impulse Jets carbon offset program when booking a corporate jet. We acknowledge that clients may already participate in other climate action schemes.
