Our Hemp Carbon Credits Elevate the Air Travel Experience to Net Zero Emissions
Welcome to the Green Age of Aviation. Air travel has become an integral part of our lives, enabling us to connect with loved ones and explore the world. However, with the growing concern over the environmental impact of aviation, and the global aviation industry back to pre-pandemic activity after a bumper summer season, it’s the perfect time to revolutionise the way we fly. Today, we are thrilled to introduce our groundbreaking product: Hemp Carbon Credits, available exclusively at Tao Climate, which are designed to help travellers offset the carbon emissions of their flights in real time.
Tao Climate, a leading provider of carbon offset solutions, today announces the launch of its new Hemp Carbon Credits to offset the CO2 emissions of any flight. The credits are designed to help travellers offset the carbon emissions of their flights in real time, and are made from industrial hemp, which is a fast-growing, carbon-negative crop that can capture and store CO2 from the atmosphere.
“We are excited to launch the Green Age of Aviation with our Hemp Carbon Credits to help people offset the CO2 emissions of their flights,” said Gary Byrnes, CEO of Tao Climate. “These credits are a real, measurable way for air travellers to reduce their impact on climate change and help rebuild Ukraine with sustainable hempcrete.”
The Hemp Carbon Credits are priced at €0.50/kg CO2e, and they can be purchased in any amount. To offset the CO2 emissions of a one-hour flight, a passenger would need to purchase 38 kg of credits.
“We believe that everyone should have the opportunity to offset their flight emissions,” said Byrnes. “That’s why we have made our Hemp Carbon Credits affordable and accessible to everyone. Unlike traditional offset programs that may take years to show results, Tao Climate Hemp Carbon Credits are removing CO2 from the atmosphere as they are purchased. This means air passengers can enjoy guilt-free, carbon-neutral travel from the moment they take to the skies. Whether it’s a short domestic flight or a long-haul international journey, we can now feel great about flying, every time.”

Our Methodology for Calculating the Carbon Footprint of Flights
We base our calculations on hours in the air; fuel consumption per hour for a B737-8200 (MAX); industry-recognised carbon footprint per kilogram of jet fuel, and the 2023 average load factor provided by IATA. Our price of just €0.50 per kilogram of CO2e funds the cultivation of industrial hemp, capturing atmospheric carbon, and safely sequestering it in hempcrete buildings for centuries.
Please note:
- Different aircraft types have different fuel consumption profiles.
- Our calculations are conservative, not accounting for potential higher impacts (X1.9) due to high-altitude emissions.
- Airport-related emissions during taxiing and take-off are not included.
- Long-haul flights may have proportionately fewer airport-related emissions but compensate with heavier fuel loads.
