Air travel offset policy model?

Does anyone have a model policy for offsetting air travel emissions? And, if so, can you describe how you implemented the policy to get full compliance?

This is one of the tangible actions in the ACUPCC but I can't find any examples.

Thanks!

Hi Chris & Shannan - 

I don't know of such a policy off the top of my head - and unfortunately don't have the time right now to dig in, but in the ACUPCC Reporting System, you can see all of the 54 schools that selected that tangible action (via the "statistics & dataviews" section) - http://acupcc.aashe.org/statistics-search.php?r=3

Connecting with the Implementation Liaisons at some of the other schools on that list could be a good place to start (and please continue the conversation here, as appropriate, so we all can learn!) 

Thanks & all the best,

Georges
