Carbon Offsetting allows for the investment in projects that save the emission of, or absorb, an equivalent amount of CO2 to that of your MFP footprint. Through this process the emissions are balanced to become “Carbon Zero,” which allows for positive printing and copying with no detrimental effect on the environment.

 

Taking part in the Toshiba Carbon Zero Scheme will offset several tonnes of Carbon from the MFP footprint alone. Toshiba are supporting a number of Projects in the Developing World to help offset this Carbon including:

 

The African Energy Efficient Stove Project

Supplying energy saving cooking stoves to villages in Kenya, which result in a reduction of 70% of firewood, saving carbon as well as a more cost and time effective method to cook with.
